It kind of still is because of Webview2. Games such as Forza Motorsport (not that you'd want to play that crap) depend on it for Xbox login purposes even if you bought the game on Steam. The game depends on the system Edge libraries and doesn't ship its own.

Display and processor? If the answer is yes or maybe, then Doom can run on it.
First of all, thank you very much for your service.
Secondly, you're crazy lmao
I am pretty sure TianoCore is also used by AMD systems as a reference as well.
Here's a similar situation that happened in 2019 at Lenovo's site

AMD systems are listed as well.
As for most board vendors nowadays, I think they barely do anything with the code itself and just create the setup utility and boot logos. It is highly likely that they're affected too.
Aren't AMI, Insyde and Phoenix providers for 98% of PC (be it board or OEM) vendors though?
And AFAIR, TianoCore is basically used everywhere by everyone as a base except maybe Apple.
This goes for inter-developer communication too. Be nice to one another. Someone just wants to help sometimes.
Did you fight a lion on the way to school on one foot while the other foot was starting a business?
- Power management on certain chips is simply better than anything Linux has to offer (AMD Zen+ mobile for instance)
- Modular driver architecture with drivers that aren't complete jank to manage and install. A lot of people see this as a pain point, but in reality it's not such a bad thing, especially nowadays.
- This is a given, but as lots of stuff runs on Windows (namely older games), you can only really make stuff for Windows on Windows. So if you need to develop Win32 software, you really have to use Visual Studio for proper development. Mingw cross compile exists, I know, but that's never going to be as good.
Number 3 is keeping me on Windows. I make mods for old games and I need Visual C++. I almost got the compiler to run under Wine but who knows how it would behave if it did run.
People on Reddit are simply too addicted to the content. That's the only real reason I can see what could bind someone to the platform. It all boils down to that - content. (And you probably don't need me to repeat the usual "for more content we need more users" lol)
The old reddit is purely a technical thing at this point. I believe in the popular opinion that it's a matter of time before it gets shut down.
I've personally been a user of it on Apollo and Relay and to me it was the way to use it. Rarely have I interacted with the website. So I imagine it's a similar thing with the old mode users.
This “the alternatives are great” gaslighting stuff has got to stop. We’ve all tried it and we’re all still here, for good reason. Reddit sucks but the fediverse sucks even more.
Oh the irony in this comment... The only person being gaslit is yourself.
And secondly - a lot of people don't know that you can now block instances individually and that defederation/blocking is not really that big of a deal anymore.
"Goddamnit"
