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.
.NET is just a runtime, not problematic at all, and definitely doesn’t deserve to be lumped in with ads, spyware, and AI.
We should also get rid of the Windows C++ Redistributable packages as well!
It’s probably Microsofts best product
Probably it’s best stupidest name too, except maybe renaming the remote desktop app to “Windows App”.
But it’s so sloooowwww
It’s only slow if you’re running a slow computer. Anyway it’s way faster than all your electron apps which each insist on taking up four for gigabytes of RAM
no its not.
Compares to what? Electron apps or ffmpeg level of assembler?
Native?!
Native what? AoT compiled dotnet code? Bad C++ code?
I suppose bad C++ code if those are the only options?
Of course not. But saying an entire framework is bad is silly. That is my entire point. Thanks for agreeing with me.
Yep. Plenty of games depends on it too.
