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?
should just use the Linux kernel and pit their version of the desktop on top of that.
The only value windows has is that it runs software made by companies that are too lazy to add another build target
I’m imagining Microsoft taking it all the way and when you buy a Win13 license key, it basically installs a custom theme in KDE Plasma or maybe Cinnamon.
It might be worse for their profits long term than sticking with their locked down bullshit, but it’s kind of funny to think that they would first make billions of dollars of sales on their linux distro.
