> enrolled in the Canary channel of Microsoft's Windows Insider testing program. This is the least stable and most experimental of the four Windows 11 testing channels. As Microsoft adds features and fixes bugs, it should gradually move to the Dev, Beta, and Release Preview channels
Strange naming convention. In my company canary sits between dev and beta, usually used for load testing. Then move to beta for A/B and stability testing, and finally to release/production. Dev is the most unstable.
I think Dev from the Windows perspective is targeted towards people developing solutions atop windows, whereas I assume in your org, Dev is indicating development of the actual product/codebase you have. With Windows, Canary does come after that point - we don’t have access to the channel you would refer to as Dev.
