Installed, turned it on, love it. One of the better features in Windows 11 at last.

True. If it's like the lock screen spotlight it'll probably be totally random.

Blocked by Paul on Twitter
Well, I responded to a tweet by Paul a few days ago about Windows Mobile 10, basically saying I brought a Windows Phone last year and think the OS is much better than people give it credit for. I was then told by Paul to "unsubscribe", followed by another tweet saying "What part of unsubscribe wasn't clear?".
I'm now blocked from following @thurrott.
I'd post the tweets but being blocked means I can't. I tweeted Paul an apology but i'm still blocked and there's no indication of what I did wrong.
Didn't realise buying a Windows Phone was that awful.
Is Paul having a mid-life crisis or does anyone think this is a little unfair? Aside from this post, I'm now boycotting Windows Weekly and Thurrott.com as I too can have a mid-life crisis and be unfair :)
