Windows Is Falling Apart, And Microsoft Is Panicking (www.youtube.com)

Windows hit its lowest market share in decades, Microsoft lost $400 billion in a week, and now their own president is admitting they need to fix the OS. SteamOS and Linux aren't waiting around.

This isn't because windows sucks, this is all the recoil from AI. MS invested over $13b in openai and holds about a quarter of the company.

Windows doesn't make enough money for Microsoft to seriously care about it, their baby now Azure.

Their big ticket money maker now is just Microsoft's version of RHEL? RIP

[–] Shadow@lemmy.ca 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

Huh? RHEL isn't a cloud. Azure is Microsoft's version of aws / gcp

[–] redsand@infosec.pub 1 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

Isn't azure the name of the linux spin running the HVM too?

[–] Shadow@lemmy.ca 2 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

I don't know what you mean by Linux spin. Are you thinking of hyperv?

[–] redsand@infosec.pub 0 points 13 hours ago (1 children)

i could swear i remember reading their cloud was linux under the hood. Research time i suppose

[–] Shadow@lemmy.ca 1 points 12 hours ago

Very well might be, but the end product is nothing like RHEL. I know they host more Linux than Windows on Azure.
