Redstone 5 Big Feature(s)

<p>A big new feature of RS5 is the revamped Windows Console (actual PTY support and such). I'm looking forward to using that feature, but I might be unusual in that regard. There are a bunch of display and accessibility improvements that I don't really use (but will be great for people who need them), a set of significant improvements to Notepad (another program I don't use since VS Code is better IMO), and some other small changes that matter for people who need them but aren't really visible otherwise. So yeah, there aren't many consumer-facing features in this release. Plenty of work in the background stuff though.</p><p><br></p><p>With a 6-month release cadence, I don't see how they could add much in that time span. Looking at OSes like Ubuntu which also releases every 6 months, the big upgrades are only during the LTS releases which are every 2 years. And given that the RS series of updates is ending with RS5, I think this release is mainly to add the stuff that they didn't get to before.</p>
