Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe

My favourite Windows emulator is this app. I no longer like Windows 11 because of this. I got a Windows 11 computer and now I just wanna throw it away after hearing this news. Why is this happening to WSA? Seriously all you need is money, money and MONEY, comeeeee oooonnnn plssssss don't be like EA. If you still kills this feature. I will vote you the worst company ever existed. I will never use any of your products and told everyone you are the worst😭😭😭😭😭😭

Please don't kill this feature and instead, enhance it!

I'm sad too. But my older sister said to me that one day they may rethink continuing WSA and enhance it. Oh and the community can help. I saw ADeltaX repository on GitHub now turns to WSA-community now

Want to voice my support as well.

It is such a convenient interface for working with apps that either don't need to be portable, require more power, or could use a larger display (there are incredible drawing apps). It could be the beginning of something truly amazing and has a lot of potential for growth that would be a shame to throw away.

It's hard 'cause @MustardChef's builds mostly depend on Microsoft's as well, isn't it? I don't want WSA to be ended like this either. 😭

It is absolute foolishness and shortsightedness from Satya Nadella and his cohorts in the executive chair to ax WSA.

Let me spell it out as Satya has been lacking in the logic department lately with the blunder of Copilot+ to answer for.

Windows 11 lacks a mobile app library in the Microsoft Store. Microsoft excels in the triple E--embrace, extend, extinguish.

You are doing the polar opposite by axing this. Really.

Apparently, 2nd generation Snapdragon X next year brings further efficiency improvements to enable smaller and more passive designs. With it, you are going to release an 11" Surface Pro, and competitors will likely be bringing smaller tablets as well... without a competent app library to entice users.

Software trumps hardware always. Look at NVIDIA. Look at Tesla.

No one buys a tablet, especially smaller tablets where touch comes first and foremost in regular usage, without tablet-optimized, touch-friendly apps.

The beauty of WSA is it enables users to have tablet-optimized, touch-friendly apps from Android despite Microsoft Store's shortcomings, its admission of failure with Progressive Web Apps glorified web bookmarks lately replacing most real modern apps.

You could be literally embracing and extending Android to stay ahead while having a super power Android could never dream of: bringing full Windows program support along with access to Android's 2-million-plus touch-optimized apps.

That's win-win, but you'd rather have loss-lose due to myopia.

DeX and Stage Manager can never dream of this cornucopia of app compatibility and you throw it away, despite all of these software engineers' painstaking efforts.

Never mind you stupidly got rid of Windows 10's Tablet Mode, which us users can thankfully still bring back with https://github.com/valinet/ExplorerPatcher.

Never mind you can justify keeping Windows Subsystem for Linux without it bringing a revenue flow. Axing WSA because the Amazon Appstore partnership failed is throwing the baby out with the bathwater.

You are staring at your very advantage over Android, macOS, iPadOS, and iOS right in the face, and casting it aside as if it were nothing.

Don't be stupid as you have been with countless graveyard casualties. WSA is the way forward to stay ahead and is your upper hand to keep an ace up your sleeve. Don't be stupid for once, please.

super true, WSA is keep Windows 11 alive, now what do I do? They always yeah stupid AI. And you know what, they partnered OpenAI for this, and I still prefer OpenAI ChatGPT than Microsoft Copilot. They thinks everyone hates WSA and prefers AI better and they will get those juicy money. But no, in reality, everyones hates Microsoft AI.

Yeah, the credit of MustardChef...
WSA is still the trademark of Microsoft Corporation.
