They probably could have put a few MS ads on the website for Azure or w/e and actually made a profit. Otherwise, they could have just left it alone, it wasn't hurting or competing with them.
Honestly it was helping them. Add in another hoop for me to jump through for open source/indie projects and I'm just going full Linux, especially with all the effort I keep having to go through to keep windows how I want it. Like windows is genuinely becoming as much if not more effort and headaches than Linux for me. I'm also running out of windows only games, once these last couple communities die I'll probably never look at anything msoft again in my life all because of the companies constant anti-user decisions.
I never understand this: Linux has always been the reliable and manageable one. Windows has always been the flakey corporate nonsense. It is the one that causes me headaches. Every since XP came out.
Games, well that's a fair point.
