MODERATORS
Didnt they actually switch to "This PC" like a decade ago?
Yeah, I think it was changed in Win 10 (or maybe 8/8.1?)
Shhh.
Let the tech illiterate Linux bros have their circle jerk.
I'm not a Linux user but even I think "tech illiterate Linux bro" is a silly thing to say.
Though I will say the My Computer to This PC switch was probably more due to the "everyone has multiple devices now" dynamic than the "you will own nothing" dynamic.
Well, they started with enshitification a few years after getting the MS Basic contract with IBM... So yeah, the switch to "This PC" was about 3 decades too late.
They started with the enshittification of the thing, before the thing was a thing.
I feel like I remember a transition step. Like it was just Computer or something for one version.
