Microsoft for 8 years now is a company that sells Linux and opensource.
Non of their divisions you mentioned were profitable for many years now(especially Windows), just look at their yearly reports. Only logical to get rid of them. Don’t agree with your Azure statement, don’t mind me, numbers don’t agree with it.
I don’t get why you wrote so much about gaming, Microsoft never was a gaming company. And frankly nothing important for gamers was lost with them buying those empty shells of game developer companies, then shutting them down.
I can agree on the AI hype especially with recent github news. But those are recent, we’ll have to see if that was bad or good decision.
I don’t know how else to explain it to you. Microsoft is doing well on paper
These unprofitable divisions? This is the result of the layoffs. This is what happens when you stop doing the thing, and you start living in speculation land
Azure is a mess propped up by AI. The numbers don’t account for shuffling money around. It’s related to why every Microsoft product has ai shoved into it
And I’m keep bringing up gaming because their gaming division is the most egregious example of what I’m talking about. They’re the third largest game publisher, and they’ve played a huge part killing AAA gaming. And in doing so, they’ve killed their own revenue stream
