    Remember when they announced native Android app support as a main selling feature for Win 11 and then quietly axed it later? The only thing actually drawing people to Win 11 is them pulling the plug on 10, and even that isn’t working that well.

    Maybe they should try making a good OS instead of all their other BS.

        If they plow half their profits into the Linux foundation and a new android/steam/open source OS AI free ecosystem they could destroy 🍏 and Microsoft.

      I was so excited about that, because running some Android apps natively on my Desktop PC would’ve been amazing. But it never really worked well, installing the PlayStore was not officially supported (and painful) and then it got canned.

      The only “good” thing that improved with Windows 11 was WSL, and as soon as I found an employer that allowed me to use a native Linux machine I ran away from the Windows dumpsterfire as fast as I could.
