3. an operating system that is taking away features that I like to use

Can you tell me what they are, that were in W/7?

Well let's see. They are taking away the very simple Snipping Tool, the Control Panel is going away, and that's just for starters.

Office 2016 doesn't give you the ability to group their icons/program links under a single sub-menu anymore. MicroThief can't put out an update without causing computer problems for many users.

And those programs to disable telemetry and data collection come with warnings not to use unless the user is convinced they won't cause problems with their programs, which a couple of those did for me in times past.
