While I acknowledge the fact that this can happen, as Microsoft has to support all sorts of hardware, it’s a sheer nightmare having to reinstall Windows, since that typically uninstalls all your installed applications, unlike macOS, where a reinstall over your existing macOS wouldn’t get you rid of anything!
All those applications, their plugins, patches, activations, and settings - gone.
That’s Windows, ladies and gentlemen!

Actually, Android is far from being customisable. I tried hard already, but couldn’t get an Android phone to do just what I want.
the most basic things are simply not possible.
I’m speaking of customising privacy settings per app, and moreover, Notification settings per app.
I do want a tapable notification for most apps as well as lock screen notifications.
But for certain apps, I want discrete notifications (sound and badge ok, Notification Center too...but no banners and nothing on the lock screen). Funnily, Apple is takin this even further with iOS 11 and per-app switch for enabling or disabling showing a notification’s contents.
Where can Android do any of that?
If not even notifications work, how can I even go on with that OS?
