Matter over Thread? Great. Matter over WiFi? Absolute dogs mess.

Weekly software releases are for the benefit of developers and not users. It‘s a net negative to UX and enables sloppy engineering.

No user or engineer would choose this path. This is purely a reaction to EGS not getting enough market share vs Steam. Make Fortnite the storefront.

Call me old fashioned but I don’t want to see a muppet’s legs.

The majority of Windows PC gaming will not be happening on Windows within 10 years. Change my mind.

RE Liquid Glass…

The highest paid engineer should be the Tesla engineer that figured out how to make their web browser performant on ancient Intel Atom chips. Browser and media apps were almost unusable 5 years ago. Now they work great.
