Microsoft is working on a new project labeled Windows ‘K2’, intent on removing bloatware, reducing AI, and optimizing Windows 11 for gaming, with three focuses of ‘performance, craft, and reliability’.

the issue is not about performance, is about enshitification. I mean, do we need TPM? do we need Microslop account to login our pc/laptop? do they really need to shove Copilot into Windows?

    Yep, there’s a reason they turned Office into a web app. Even if companies switch to Linux or macOS, MS can still sell them a subscription to Outlook/Office/etc.

    Company wants to move their servers to Linux as well? Well Azure also provides cloud based Linux servers, MS doesn’t care what you run as long as they can make money off it.

      MS365 is also under attack. There are huge advances in selfhosting collaborative editing web-based apps as of late.

      Azure will probably keep existing tho.
