TLDR: StartAllBack, ExplorerPatcher and some other projects are being blocked on 24H2.

I can see why they'd do it. Windows is a corporate product and MSFT wants everyone's experience to be tailored to exactly how they think is best. Gives some Apple vibes.

I think at this point MSFT knows the average user is just gonna keep using Windows so they don't really care about tailoring to individuals. I expect to see a lot more of this.

Windows for gaming, Linux for everything else. With the way I use it, I don't see the desktop, much less notice any changes between updates.
