Now that GPU companies and developers seem to be giving some focus to Linux, I don’t know what Microsoft can do.
Windows is bloated to shit and that’s how Microsoft seemingly wants it. Unless they start to offer a stripped down release then I don’t see how it could compete with a Linux based OS going forward.

That’s actually brilliant, and if they offered a stripped down base system that end-users could customize downstream (vis a vis BlueBuild and Universal Blue), they could reclaim some of the market.
But they’d have to relinquish some of their control and that precious user telemetry, so I’m with you that it’s obviously how they want it.

MS seems to be more of a user data and subscription company now.
