Killed by Microsoft is the open source list of dead Microsoft products, services, and devices. It serves as a tribute and memorial of beloved services and products killed by Microsoft.
I don’t understand the anxiety then. Almost nothing Microsoft kills is actually dead just rebranded. Calendar isnt dead. Cortana is copilot. They do have some recent vr stuff that’s actually dead I guess, but…
The things you really need to worry about are successful products Microsoft buys, like Skype, because they are only buying to destroy. Discord could’ve been dead by now if Microsoft bought it. But then…they’d also have integrated teams with both Xbox and steam.
It’s funny how this doesn’t affect me anymore. Just some months ago I would have looked at this with anxiety, but now it’s just entertainment.
Because you quit your job in Redmond?
No, because I switched to Linux and have very little exposure to Microsoft products anymore.
