    Microsoft has done the same thing for years. They provide software, drivers and workarounds for unsupported scenarios while making it clear they won’t provide full support. Seems fair.

      After working with Microsoft at the enterprise level I can say with confidence they do not offer full support on anything.

        It blows me away that EVERY machine I have worked on in manufacturing runs on Windows or some fuckin one-off HMI thing that has no documentation and can never be upgraded.

        Good luck getting 1-on-1 support from a representative at Microsoft, their support now is either articles or an LLM.

        Contact Us? “Yeah first we need step 1 of 42069 completed before we can be any help”

      Hell, even Apple put in place the tools that Asahi needs to run on Apple Silicon.

      They do literally nothing else, but the fact that Asahi can run in the first place is more than nothing.
