Re: Whats the issue ? MS just trying to catch up with iOS and Android
Microsoft has constantly been trying to catch up with iOS and Android, since... I dunno, maybe from the time when WP7 went RTM?
And Microsoft only knows one way: leveraging on its ill-gotten desktop monopoly to extend its grip on mobile.
Windows 8 was a good example. It failed. So will Windows 10** (technically Windows 8 SP2). UWP will fail too.
**By failing I mean making inroads into mobile, and getting developers interested in coding for its app store. It is perfectly okay to upgrade to Windows 10 if you have an old PC and use that for purely win32 PC/productivity stuff. Just make sure to switch off the telemetry and data mining crap. And remember to avoid using a Microsoft account.
