Just in time for copilot integration into every fucking thing.

That's why it's going, to make room for copilot results

Everyone: “please stop.”
Microsoft: “no.”
E: “but it’s shit!”
M: “no.” E: “….”
M: “oh well let you get rid of it. Is.”

All the new Linux users: “we already did,”

Join the horde! We will help you leave Windows!

For the Alliance!

(Sorry. Couldn’t resist.)

For king and country!

I'm doing my part.

Let me guess, a European lawmaker had a little chat with Microsoft that went something like this:

Europe: If you don't allow users to change their search engine, we're going to break up your monopoly.

Microsoft: Did you know, we're now offering our users the option to select their preferred search engine on Windows 11.

I already killed Bing by switching to Linux.

But thanks.

Bye Bing !!!

Not that fake terminal tweet again

EDIT: Possibly not fake, but definitely not default
