It seems like Microsoft has realized its Windows FSE isn't enough to match SteamOS game mode — but it has a new project to solve it
www.techradar.com
Microsoft is currently in an ongoing battle to improve Windows 11 for idle use and gaming to compete with SteamOS, and it has a big plan for it.

Microsoft is working on a new project labeled Windows ‘K2’, intent on removing bloatware, reducing AI, and optimizing Windows 11 for gaming, with three focuses of ‘performance, craft, and reliability’.

the issue is not about performance, is about enshitification. I mean, do we need TPM? do we need Microslop account to login our pc/laptop? do they really need to shove Copilot into Windows?

    It’s an easy decade away at the pace that Microsoft updates

    Win 8.1 wants a word.

    the rich buy Apple, its not secure and free, that’s Linux

    Thats an over-simplification. Say what you will about MacOS but it is secure. Some Linux distros are very secure, but its not a given. And some rich people run Linux or Windows.

    Whats left? Business ? Thats eroding fast!

    My friend, Business is the reason MS doesn’t have to care about consumers or even Windows anymore.

      Not even close. Entire Kernel is cancer. 8.1 was bad lipstick on a pig.

      Over-simplification

      Biggest attribute of them both is a simplification.

      Doesn’t need to care about windows any more.

      But 8.1! Entire EU says good luck with that
