It never fails to amuse me that the "exciting" things that Microsoft does to Windows always falls into one of two categories:

1. Implementing features that have been available in Linux/MacOS for years

2. Adding interoperability capabilities

I'm happy Microsoft is slowly catching up with the times, but it's still not a good look
