They are pushing hard on the developer experience because greenfield projects aren’t being built using Windows centric tooling anymore. If it’s server it’s Linux, and if it’s client it’s either electron or a web app. What will kill Windows is when there is no reason to buy Windows. MS recognizes this fact and has been pivoting to service offerings for that reason. They want users to make an MS account so they can herd people into their ecosystem.
Ah so they are trying to become Apple. The very company that outcompetes them by a massive order of magnitude.
Ironically, I was already using OneDrive but that very push is likely to be the thing that gets me to stop using Windows in the next few years.
