It seems like Microsoft has realized its Windows FSE isn't enough to match SteamOS game mode — but it has a new project to solve it
www.techradar.com
Microsoft is currently in an ongoing battle to improve Windows 11 for idle use and gaming to compete with SteamOS, and it has a big plan for it.

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?

    My only hope with this is that MS doesn’t have a complete hold on the gaming market anymore. Valve has to hold some serious sway at this point, and MS doing that might backfire on them.
