You know, I stumbled onto this thing about Xbox Insiders—yeah, starting some new stuff this week. So, if you’re one of those Insiders, buckle up, because Home’s getting a bit of a facelift. I mean, finally, right? All those talks about keeping things fresh and all. It’s like they actually listened! Or maybe it’s just coincidence. Who knows.
Okay, what’s up with it? There’s this list—recently played games and apps. You know the one. It’s getting these three new spicy options. And I’m like, “Why didn’t they think of this sooner?” Anyway, let’s see what they’re cooking.
First off, you can hide those annoying system apps. Yeah, if you ever thought, “Why on earth is this cluttering my screen?” Good news. It’s like clearing out that junk drawer at home. Or trying to, anyway. Who here doesn’t love a clean slate?
And another thing—I adore this one—pinning favorites to Home. Imagine pinning up to three of your top games right there. Boom. Easy-peasy access. Quick launch. No more scrolling eternally.
Oh, and here’s one that’s coming soon: reducing tile count. I wonder if that means they finally got tired of making us all squint at a screen full of tiles. Streamlining, as they say. Less is more, right? Or maybe they just couldn’t fit everything in. Whatever works.
Anyway, seems like they’re testing these with Alpha folks first. It’s all about your feedback, which is neat. Or maybe they just want to hear some good old ranting. Personally, I think this is their way of saying, “Look, we really do care.”
And speaking of caring, they’re all over Reddit listening to you guys. Apparently, Home should feel personal. Isn’t it supposed to be already? But I digress. Tap into those feedback vibes, whether it’s a suggestion or a bit of a vent.
Ah, the future of Xbox, they say. It’s like being part of one big evolving experiment. Pretty cool if you ask me. And if you’re wondering, yes, they thank you profusely for that feedback. Over and over. Not kidding.
If you need support or feel like chatting about all this jazz, the Xbox Insider subreddit’s your go-to. Or, hey, jump into threads that are already buzzing. Easier than starting your own. Like jumping into a conversation versus yelling across the room.
Wondering if you’re missing out? Join the Insider stuff by downloading their Hub. Maybe it’s just another thing to remember… or not.
Anyway—wait, did I mention the subreddit thing already? Guess it’s worth repeating. Whatever you do, looks like Xbox wants you in their feedback loop. If you’re game, that is.
