>It might be hilarous to you as part of the Android support team.
At least they're still employed. Windows support team - not so much.
>To us that actually have to deliver software with those tools and fulfill customer expectations, it is a chaos.
Compared to the Windows store, which is a cesspool of garbage, for both Windows apps and Windows phone apps I would say quality was the furthest thing from their minds.
> At least they're still employed. Windows support team - not so much.
Well last time I checked my Windows Phones were still getting more updates than my Android phones.
Quite ironic for a platform that is supposed to be dead with unemployed team

Not far off from the daily garbage I see on Play Store as well.
It's also what most of the apps are written in, aren't they? Unlike C++ and .NET Native.
>Well last time I checked my Windows Phones were still getting more updates than my Android phones.
I'm pretty sure you're not getting firmware updates from the OEM since they abandoned the platform so you only seem to be getting OS updates from Microsoft - who announced they'll be ending updates.
>Quite ironic for a platform that is supposed to be dead with unemployed team
No firmware updates and your OS updates will be ending soon. That looks like an unemployed team to me.
>Not far off from the daily garbage I see on Play Store as well.
The difference is the Play store actually contains all of the apps and they're really nice to use. The Windows store, however, will always be a cesspool. I hear Microsoft is so desperate for apps that their scouring the Internet for PWA apps to put on their store.
Better take a compilers course to learn the differences between .NET and .NET Native.
Interesting that you mention PWA, which happen to be pushed by Google's Chrome team, which has some Google IO talks bashing native apps as if Android wasn't made by the same company.
At the same time they are pushing Flutter and Dart as replacement for those stacks.
>Better take a compilers course to learn the differences between .NET and .NET Native.
It would seem you're the one in need of a course due to your inability to differentiate the difference between .NET and .NET Native.
>Interesting that you mention PWA, which happen to be pushed by Google's Chrome team, which has some Google IO talks bashing native apps as if Android wasn't made by the same company.
PWA is a platform for low end phones. It's funny that Microsoft jumped on the bandwagon so fast. When you're that desperate for apps on your cesspool of a store you'll take anything.
>At the same time they are pushing Flutter and Dart as replacement for those stacks.
Flutter and Dart are a cross platform development solution. They're also instrumental to Fuchsia - you know, the OS that'll make Windows suffer the same fate as Windows Phone.
So they osbourned your previous phone and the current phone you have has an OS in maintenance mode and isn't receiving OEM firmware updates.
>The 100% native apps experience, C++ and .NET Native, meant they were more responsive that Android devices on the same price category
You realize that the high majority of Windows phone apps aren't written in C++ or .NET native, right?
>And the development environment runs circles around the chaos of Android tools.
This is hilarious considering the number of times Microsoft osbourned the Windows phone development environment.
