I genuinely don't understand the point of Windows as it exists anymore.
* Games are developed on cross platform engines. I can't remember the last game I played that was Windows-exclusive.
* Business apps work in the browser or Electron, or are otherwise cross-platform. Things that aren't, could work with emulation
* Developers are using unix-like operating systems, and MS has leaned hard into that. Windows is incongruent with the rest of their developer strategy.
* The server ecosystem is almost entirely Linux based, apparently even on Azure
* By all appearances, Windows is now a service that upsells other services, and there won't be a Windows 11 as we would traditionally think of it
* The people who know what an OS is, prefer unix-like OSes by a vast margin. The people who don't, wouldn't notice the difference.
* x86 looks even less like the future than it did a month ago
I genuinely don't understand the point of Windows as it exists anymore.
So I don't understand what the holdup is?
