Under capitalism a company is either growing or dying. Either the company is making their shareholders money or they get abandoned.
Microsoft has bleed as much money as they can from their customers under their current model. Only way to continue growing to survive is by taking even more money from their customers.
Due to having no long term strategy to grow their business by extending/improving their platform they’ve instead doubled down on their current model by charging extra money for value that isn’t there.
Enshitification is proof that companies like this have exceeded their ability to grow. Their only move now is further Enshitification, and further charging even more money for value that isn’t there because without that they will die.
As far as I can see it’s purely self-cannibalization until nothing is left.
