A "powerhouse"? With active revolt by Windows 10 users choosing pirated LTSC versions or Linux rather than updating to Windows 11, and releasing debloat and removal scripts of their features daily? With a gaming division that committed PR and corporate suicide? With an AI division that is a sinking black hole of war chest capital that has reaped questionable returns outside of state surveillance apparatuses in Israel? That "powerhouse"?

    Windows isn't their powerhouse, Azure is. They don't give a shit about consumers.

    Their AI division is equally aimed at enterprise and consumer audiences, and rejected by both (again, outside of state surveillance contexts). Additionally, Azure may be under fire from external regulators and nations desiring data sovereignty, and competitors who just are able to outperform (AWS/Cloudflare)
