So - a nice security hole to allow documents to be extracted by sneakernet without needing a USB port, some modifications to a browser that no one who cares about security or privacy uses, an enlarged recent items list and an admission that the Windows Store is so crap that people do not use it. What a massive list of "improvements".
You seen concerned about losing control of documents. Perhaps you should look into Rights Management rather than complain about a feature to make sharing easier, which is something users would want.
I'm glad to see they're backtracking a bit on UWP and forcing the Store on people.
Modular app installs are a nice thing, but they've got to do it in a way that doesn't force a whole new platform on everyone. There's tons of Win32 code around. It's not "legacy", it's the vast majority of what people want Windows for. So treating it as legacy is shooting themselves in the foot ("if I'm going to have to rewrite my whole application anyway, why not on Linux?").
Prior to this update, I thought Windows 10 S could be upgraded to 10 Pro at no cost anyway which was already something of an admission that making the Store the mandatory source of software was an unworkable model in an environment where Windows users are accustomed to getting software from outside sources.
Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to see them backing away from the Store a bit, but the walled garden approach was supposed to be a new source of income to monetize the OS. It does look like maybe in the next couple of updates, 10 S will be abandoned completely and this is just the second step away from their previously aggressive stance on it.
Yeah I just ran the updater and it updated today. Usually in the past I had to wait awhile for feature updates or manually install it with the media creation tool.
So far no issues, no apparent changes either though.
Popped it on last night, would have been nice if it just acknowledged my existing privacy settings instead of making go through all it's attempts to mine my data. Interface looks a bit more polished and a tad quicker.

PWAs and web apps in general are terrible for users compared to UWP apps. Memory consumption and performance are both 10x worse than they should be.Sttm - Monday, April 30, 2018 - link

Hopefully Nearby Sharing will be the AirDrop for PCs. Homegroups can get pretty finicky at times.Wolfclaw - Tuesday, May 1, 2018 - link
