I am questioning whether it's true that Microsoft is attempting to implement more brand-based marketing, ecosystem lock-in, and a walled garden by rebranding Remote Desktop as a Windows App. Yes, I agree that everything now uses "app" in computer terminology; at least, it seems so. What if one day even the OS kernel is called an app too? Lol

I'm going to start referring to kernels as the os app. Just to fuck with people.
