Though enshittification was coined, I think, with online services in mind, this is a perfect example of the process as it applies to an OS.
Completely agree. For some reason that word tends to trigger a few gatekeepers on here. But I think it fits.
The enshittification of windows is because of its online services. Copilot AI, "telemetry", ads, etc.
It's a better fit than most knee-jerk overuses. "You're all stuck with us," middle-man OS says to users and vendors alike.
