@ThirdWorldOrder Same, I remember trying it early on and it was awful

@davel In my area Apple Maps is usually better than Google Maps.

@savvywolf @skymtf I'm still irked so much has to update thru it. I mean I sort of get 3rd parties, but why doesn't Microsoft apps either update directly or with windows update? Why a completely separate system to maintain and the user to check?

@skymtf Same basic thing of yes they could likely do it technically. But no in that the EU and some other regulators would likely block it. IMO

@skymtf Well yes and no. Technically they probably could, but they'd likely incur the wrath of the EU doing so. That said if they were interested in a locked environment, they could have just never started porting Xbox games to PC.

@mr_MADAFAKA I have that one running ChimeraOs and it plays great. They are great little machines. (Might try out Bazzite on it sometime I keep hearing good things about it).

@mr_MADAFAKA It was more just works than tell papa microsoft EVERYTHING? But probably just random luck off the sampling.

@jsomae @cron same,

@AAKL @thegamerwebsite @steam yep, so any argument is likely to fail

@AAKL @thegamerwebsite @steam Well agree or disagree, unless someone successfully makes a stand against these kind of actions. The plumber is going to flush it all down the drain.
