Tell me again how Microsoft has changed and it isn’t the same company anymore, and how EEE is ancient history.

>>teddyh+b8
Microsoft, like many other big modern tech companies, just treat goodwill like a currency. Now the time has come to spend it again.

I don't believe for a second that EEE is gone from Microsofts culture and strategy.

It's more that Microsoft is a huge company that contains both benevolent and malevolent actors. The Windows team has embraced dark patterns wholeheartedly whereas the VSCode team is doing good work to earn developer love. That these goals are in complete opposition seems to not trouble MS execs.

>>zarzav+go1
The VSCode team is busy releasing proprietary extensions which won't run on open source builds of Code, but only proprietary builds packaged by Microsoft.
