My hate isn’t for the performance and game compatibility of windows. It’s because they gained a monopoly through illegal business practices and they use that power to snuff innovation and compatibility for anything non windows.
I wouldn’t really say they use that power to “snuff innovation,” Windows was the operating system which is why everything is built around it most of the time and they worked on making sure XCloud would work with the Steam Deck. It’s just how it works with any operating system being different in that you’ll need to jump through additional hoops to make something from other operating systems work with other ones. Not saying Windows isn’t flawed or that Microsoft doesn’t have its own corrupt practices, but I wouldn’t say that they attack compatibility for non-Windows things.
They snuff innovation by intentionally making their products use proprietary formats that don’t play nice with other software. They also snuff innovation by abusing their monopoly to force users into their software ecosystem.
