Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

- Use NSFW marking accordingly
Laittakaa meemejÀ tÀnne.
- Odota ainakin 2 kuukautta ennen meemin postaamista uudelleen

The problem is that the Windows monopoly isn't worth having any more and Microsoft is flailing in trying to make it worth it.
Microsoft can't force an app store like Apple and Google can for iOS and Android. No one is going to buy an OS subscription like they do for Office 365. And, I'm sure that Microsoft earns almost nothing on new installs because of how cheap hardware has gotten.
@HobbitFoot @possiblylinux127 year of the GNU/Linux desktop is near đ
Eh. I feel like desktops are going to go the way of Steam Decks and Chromebooks for consumers. While Microsoft can't force an app store, other companies/OS's can.
For corporate users, I can see a corporate Windows/Office tech stack form, with corporations paying for support per user like current companies pay for Windows & Office 365.
