I’ve always considered Windows to be a toy OS, because the only use case that could legitimately justify its need is gaming. Removing that requirement leaves only the clownishly unserious and terminally incurious users, which is a large population in computing today, but I’m fine with leaving them to kick in their wading sewer.
Literally trillions of dollars in business have taken place on applications that only work on Windows. They were developed for 95 or XP or whatever and are still in use today.
For me, music production is my reason for being on Windows. Gaming I could do on Linux, but there’s nothing to drum up the interest in in fixing music prod on Linux that there was for gaming.

What a hot take.
