The problem with Dev, Beta, and Release preview channel builds is that they are usually full of bugs. Most often or not, users face issues while using the operating system. What’s worst is that it’s not easy to get out of the Insider program once new builds start shipping. Microsoft provides you a ten-day time frame to roll back to the previous update.
