It also didn’t help that they did a complete rebuild of Windows Phone OS 3 times, making old apps incompatible and forcing the very little support of app developers to get alienated from the platform. Why would you completely rebuild your app 3 times for a super low market share product.
You didn’t miss the “mobile wave”. You purposely gave up. Idiots.
They tried; it must’ve been 4 times. But unless it’s a sure thing, they’ll give up.
I worry they don’t know how to compete on a level ground, slowly building trust and business on success after success.

They freaking gave up on anything quickly if they are not immediately the leader in the market.
We were lucky and dodged that future enshitification bullet.
