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.
All the things that are easily disabled? -Sounds as foolish as having a distro for changing wallpaper, fonts and color scheme.
Install Linux, Problem Solved.

Tbf their main userbase comes from it being preinstalled.
Imagine if highschools spent one day in tech classes teaching how to install a new OS instead of microsoft word for the 640th time.
Linux mint is perfect for my needs, and its pretty cool once you get used to doing stuff in terminal, although its still very user friendly for most. Microslop can suck my nuts.
Microsoft Needs
Windows Lite, No telemetry, no spying, no ads, no AI, no .NET, to retain gamers and developersTo Fuck Off And Die; Cold, Hungry And Alone, Like The Shit Cunt It Is.Net
It was always the Office suite that was the core of Microsoft. Word, Excel, PowerPoint etc. Businesses can’t get off due to the perceived disruption.
With many critical apps still running on Windows only, Windows needs to get worse!
To push those software companies over to embrace Linux finally. Then the users can follow.Microsoft needs to accept that their time has passed
We have that. Its called Arch. And I’ve done .net development on it.
You probably mean NetCore which is not equal to .NET framework.
I dunno bro, it was a .Net project with EF core stuff in it. .Net aint my primary wheelhouse.
Appears to be, that I am wrong too, they renamed the things a couple of times. Dot-NetCore is now DotNet and .NET Framework is the win lib that existed before NetCore and still does
why would they? the telemetry, spying and bloatware is the whole idea for them. At least for regular users. We are the product and the data they harvest from us and ads they force on us is the point. And why would they care, majority of people just sticks with whatever was presented to them first. No matter how much bloat and spyware they add, majority will never care enough to do anything about it because it doenst directly affect them beyond slowing the computer down, which they think will be solved by buying a new one.
What is wrong with .NET, it’s very useful when running applications which require it which of course is basically every application in a corporate environment.
But yeah all the other things are fine.
I’m fairly certain this post is specifically excluding corporate environments
I also don’t quite understand the dislike of dotnet, though. I mean I don’t like it either, but idk why
.net (core) is a mature framework and collection of great languages that work really well, perform really well, and is truly cross platform and open source. It’s the best thing Microsoft offers.
I completely agree. My dislike is based purely in emotion
Windows losing noticeable numbers of users is a huge net gain for society. Hopefully it continues, regardless of Microslop’s actions.
Windows and the fascist company behind it needs to die.
