These last ten years I was really enjoying what Microsoft and its .NET teams were doing. Felt like a good community to be a part of. Huge strides to make things run anywhere and be more involved with the open source community.
While that hasn’t necessarily gone away, jamming LLM’s into everything is leaving a real sour taste. Pointless copilot button anywhere and everywhere. VS and VSCode pushing the GitHub copilot chats and agents.
We are quickly back to the corporate MSFT that doesn’t listen to its users or employees. All that good will has been washed away and now I feel the need to switch off of Windows.
Ya I agree, there was a time where Satya had a fresh outlook and instilled hope.
Now he cannot take criticism about their AI offerings and they are forcing it into everything.
Boggles my mind that Notepad has a Copilot button. Truly tone deaf.
Sataya was put in place to turn Microsoft into the next IBM. Anything that isn’t service or subscription based revenue will be killed off. Innovation no longer matters.
