Microsoft is losing Builders fast. They’re switching to MacOS and Linux. The biggest pull keeping people on Windows, outside of shear inertia, is content creation and gaming. However, even these are falling to Linux.

Without Builders, you don’t have software, and without software, you don’t have users. This is why Microsoft needs Windows Lite.

    Probably Microsoft’s best stupidest name too, except maybe renaming the remote desktop app to “Windows App”.

      I hate that rename so much, it makes it impossible to search anything about it. Another fun fact is the process name for “Windows App” is Windows365.exe 🤦
