This has put me in mind of when OSX added virtual desktops. Everyone forgot that they’ve been a thing in *nix for 30 years, and NextOS (which OSX was built on top of) already had them. So Apple purposefully removed them, let people complain about not having them (and build their own 3rd party solutions) for something like 8 years, then got mountains of positive press for the “new innovation” of virtual desktops. Isn’t Apple amazing!
Great job Microsoft! I’m sure this is a game changer for the world.
Ah MacOS, don’t forget they’re continuing to neuter root/sudo probably for some future goal of a walled garden desktop/laptop 🤮 for “privacy and security”

fyi the NeXT OS is called NeXTSTEP.
Thanks.
To be honest, the first incarnation of Spaces was really damn good; they deserved some credit for that. Then they made it worse so it matches iOS.
