Why are they even building native modern frameworks like WinUI only to use react native of all things...
This was my first thought. Maybe I'm way off the mark (I stopped using Windows in 2012) but I always thought the only thing it has going for itself is their toolkit. Not because it's pretty but because everyone writes applications for the same toolkit.
Why even building .NET, when they are rewriting typescript in go. It's Microsoft, often shoots itself in the other foot 🤪
Windows is not making much money, and they are reducing costs. Frontend devs are cheaper than dot net.
