>If it's real, it looks similar to iPadOS. Even with the less than successful endeavors of WinRT and Windows Phone (Phone was actually pretty cool), I feel Microsoft has never truly lost their desire to converge on a single desktop environment for desktop and mobile.
Honestly, that looks like GNOME with screen-wide dock thingy, which is hilarious.
>We see this at Apple too though - there's a lot of dismay over macOS converging with iOS and iPadOS in recent releases. What are the key reasons for it? More unified codebase? Just to make everything look the same?
Yeah, all the desktop makers lost their minds in pursuit of the most overrated metric of our age, 'efficiency', and all of them made terrible API design decisions as a result; SwiftUI is still starkly impoverished relative to AppKit, etc.
