>You guys outright abandoned you user base to pander to Linux users. On Windows. Linux users on Windows. IMO they're going after developers using Macs. Linux (and Docker) runs better on Windows than it does on Mac OS. They're doing _something_ right.

So you're saying that Linux developers on Macs are now Microsoft's target market? Not Windows developers on Windows?

    It feels like that Blizzard developer Wyatt Cheng that got on stage and asked the PC gamer crowd: "Do you guys not have phones?" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5QRgpjfarY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n5QRgpjfarY The Windows Terminal guys are similar. "Do you have any plans at all to make this work for users of Windows?" "No."

      I feel your pain, what used to be Visual Studio wizards are now CLI tools. With luck you need to install VSCode and there is an extension to call said CLI. Who needs VS designers or Blend for Windows UI development? Just recompile and run WinUI applications. I really don't get it.
