Microsoft don’t sell OS now. They sell their services using Windows as a platform. Naturally Windows is going to stagnate.

As SRE who deals with Azure, their services are not even Windows OS focused. They do sell a ton of that, mainly expensive solutions to legacy garbage code but a ton more assume open-source languages running on Linux.

And sadly Apple is going the exact same route now. Both are stagnating platforms now where bugs only accumulate and hardly get fixed and even the service delivery parts are just barely working. Enshittification in full swing. Both are more than ripe to be eaten by an alternative that puts users front and center again.
