Can we please stop trying to slide in an EEE reference everytime something comes up about MS?
You have clearly embraced EEE, but now you are extending it way past what it actually means, and if people like you continue you will extinguish it because it will not mean anything anymore.
Please don't EEE EEE.

- Lammy 6y agoWe can stop talking about EEE when Microsoft stop practicing it. This time is just with regard to a community instead of a particular software product. WinGet is the “Extend” step where they overtake AppGet in usage and probably in package registrations until AppGet withers and eventually Extinguishes itself.
- Voloskaya 6y agoThat's not remotely what EEE is about, which is my point. EEE refers to a specific business practice that is not related to this story at all. You can use other words in the language to convey that this particular move from MS is a dick move without having to use EEE. And reserve talking about EEE when it is actually relevant. Using it all the time just completly dilute it until it becomes totally meaningless.
- Lammy 6y agoHow is it not? WinGet : AppGet :: MSJVM : HotSpot
