this is why people should be developing more desktop apps imo, but not surprised at this, have seen it and will see more of it in the future. google is final authority on this and they just don't like the author (for whatever reason)

If you try to distribute some Windows application, you will discover that Microsoft pushes all kinds of bullshit unless you do it through their store too.

then, my response has been to suggest to stop using microsoft if that bothers you as a developer?

But the desktop is just snap and the windows store now.
