Same here...I'm so happy with windows 8.1 and even more so when I see your comments
same, I just reverted back to 8.1
after several tweaks, w10 2004 is still noticeably slower on laptop sleeping or waking. I had a problem with night light permanently greyed out that I wasn't able to fix. I visited several websites for solutions but nothing worked

I noticed laptop slower when waking and logging in in 2004 too, so reverted to 1909 with a fresh install.
I don't know you, but I can't revert to previous versions of Windows, I get used to Windows 10 already.

Was it slower on a freshly installed 2004?

I don't have any problems on this desk & other half's newish lappy, & a few other lappys & my old desk (I've gone to ground for other friends & relatives) - If you do an image before you attempt an update & it goes wrong, image back & wait, that's my way though I can't remember having major issues since MS in their infinite wisdom started their twice yearly updates? Relative has issues he thinks with Start10, but it's a good idea to disable Start10/O&OShutup before updating assuming you not doing a clean install, I think - Boot time near identical on this desk with a SSD + a 5TB spinner after update.
Windows 10 2004 rollout: We're slowly throttling up availability, says Microsoft
For the first time since releasing Windows 10 version 2004 to the general public on May 27, Microsoft says it is increasing the number of Windows 10 PCs it is automatically offering version 2004 to via Windows Update.
The Windows 10 version 2004 has been remarkably slow, but things could change soon. Following Patch Tuesday yesterday, Microsoft announced on the Windows release health dashboard that it will dial up automatic feature updates.

I don't know think it can slow my startup/logon times any more than the slightly degraded ones I'm getting on 1909. Intel updates didn't improve things so I'm in no rush ...
I installed 2004 on one of my rigs to see what it's all about and so far so good on my end! Mind you I always do clean installs when a major release is out and as a result I have yet to have any issues with any major update. Either I have been lucky, or it just shows the MS in place upgrades just suck and too many things can go wrong. As I've said, I have done clean installs with every major version and I have never, ever run into any issues that have come up with each release. While I know it can be a lot of work for some to get everything setup/configured the way they like it, but I am of the opinion that it is the much better option and causes the least issues, at least in my experience. It's very evident the in place upgrades cause more issues than the clean installs. At least from what I can see.
While I am not making excuses for MS, I often wonder how much of it is really MS's fault, vs hardware/software vendors fault? I hear Lenovo is having issues, but from what I can see the other major PC OEMs aren't (I may be missing it if they are). If this is the case, what is Lenovo doing that the other OEMs seem to have gotten right? It's cases like this which makes me question who's really at fault here.

I agree that it's likely not M$ because I had no issues prior to the Lenovo/Intel updates while on 1909. After these I updated to 2004 and no improvement. So I went back to my 1909 image but Windows immediately gave me the L/I updates again, like being on a hamster wheel. Maybe I'll pause updates and clean install. In fact I just got the 2004 Media Creation Tool.
I'm already waxing nostalgic for 1909 also. It's certainly not that 2004 is outright bad on here, it just doesn't have that feeling of right-ness right off the bat like 1909 did. It's meh.
Let me give you an example. Periodically, I run System Maintenance, it typically takes about 15-20 min. It's been almost two hours now, Maintenance is showing as it's "in progress" in Control Panel but nothing's been going on in Task Manager for like the past hour. Did anyone notice: your GPU temperature is displayed in Task Manager now, under Processes.
Little, puzzling things. Boot is like a second or two slower--not outrageous, just not great. Mouse clicks sometimes don't register, even with another mouse plugged into a different USB port. Disk defrag is that same old "never run" and nothing works to change that. Maybe some other little piddly stuff.
Didn't do a clean install because initially, the update and aftermath went well. All in all, no major reason to go back, but things could be better. Onward!

No, updated from 1909. Didn't try a fresh install with 2004 yet.
Hello, just updated to Windows 2004, with Windows update assistant, no problems at all, Yes!

I'm on 2004 for my personal laptop, but 2004 is not ready for a full rollout.
Will wait till more bugs are smashed before I upgrade any other computer in my household.
Windows 10 May 2020 Update is causing issues with Drive Optimizer:
Windows 10 May 2020 Update makes the disk utility forgetful
Yesterday, Microsoft announced that Windows 10 May 2020 Update (version 2004) is rolling out to more users who manually check for the upgrade. The release has been pretty smooth, but some people are complaining that the new update broke Windows 10’s built-in tool to optimize storage drives...

It's best practice to wait for a few months before upgrading Windows to a major release. Some people like to stay up-to-date at the cost of facing bugs/issues.

What is the Windows 10 Windows Feature Experience Pack?
Once you get the May 2020 Windows 10 update, you also get this new pack, which Microsoft officials oddly won't discuss.
You can see the Windows Feature Experience Pack listed as one of the Features on Demand for Windows 10 and Windows Server. This list also includes Internet Explorer, Notepad, the DirectX Configuration Database, Paint, PowerShell ISe, Quick Assist, the Print Management Console, and more. The Windows Feature Experience Pack, listed as available on Windows 10 version 2004 and later, "includes features critical to Windows functionality." Microsoft advises users not to remove this collection of Windows client shell components, which is 44.15MB in size

My power settings appears to have been changed unbeknownst to me, and I have fixed my slow startup/logon times by:
- turning off all sleep functions
- turning fast startup "Off" and then "On" again.
