Why wait for Microsoft to catch up with what we've been doing for decades?
Get Plasma, a modern, fully functional, clean, privacy-respecting, non-intrusive operating system now, regardless from where you live and ditch Windows for good.

Developers do not look for reports on social media, so they will not see it and all it does is clutter up the feed.
@Bro666 @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social oh that's bad :c I'm sorry for misunderstanding, I think both organizations should be fair to each other that's all, thank you so much for clarifying!! c:
@01adrianrdgz @Bro666 @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social right when Microsoft said "Microsoft ❤️ Linux", they also announced something big: .NET MAUI. .NET is Microsoft's standard library and runtime when coding C#. It had become cross-platform already, so you can now compile for Linux. Only thing missing was a good UI framework. MAUI was invented to address this. You know what happened? MAUI supports Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone. Not Linux.
Microsoft doesn't love Linux, Microsoft loves using Linux for Azure.

Interestingly related: when KDE devs complained to Microsoft that, due to the fact that name of their new product and similarity in functionality to KDE's own Maui project
https://mauikit.org/
they were causing confusion and potentially violating KDE's trademark, in the Microsoft forums KDE was told to sue them or f**k off.
KDE does not have much money, much less enough to embark in a costly legal battle with Microsoft with a doubtful outcome.
@Bro666 @01adrianrdgz @kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social holy, didn't know that. That's straight up evil.
