Microsoft is ruining Windows. It just keeps getting worse. Whether it be their insistence on AI and cloud garbage, or just a general sense of incompetence, I can’t help but feel like the operating system has seen better days.

Normally I wouldn’t care too much, big tech ruins another thing, whatever.

But the problem is Microsoft has such a dominant market share that you can’t really escape them.

    multiple proton compatibility layers eat up system resources real quick and last time I attempted it they kept eating until everything was chugging at frames per minute.

    Linux also does this thing called minimize on focus loss that is horrid for this (and the canned fix doesn’t work for me so don’t bother, maybe it’s a PopOS specific thing) also alt-tabing doesn’t see game clients anyway only the game launcher so that little piece of muscle memory from the past 2 decades can put you in a situation or two.
