    I wish windows went down a different path. Instead they decided to double down on ads and ai, because shareholders are more important than the actual customers

      Suckers keep using it, so what incentive is there for them to deslopify?

      I’d personally rather use a Chromebook than Windows.

        The thing is that there are real measurements of the market share of windows dropping. The only reason why adoption of w11 overtook w10 user size is because they made w10 end of life (although there are still ways around)

        Unfortunately, some business idiot mathed up that losing users is fine as long as the others get forced onto w11

        Windows could have done so much differently. More seamless integration with xbox and cross platform for gaming. Different, easily swappable profiles (windows) for different tasks (basically overhauling desktops, like for art, dev work, etc). Optimizing microsofts enterprise software suite without all the bloat. Not deprecating the idea of android support.

        But like all big tech companies, they only see money now
