I remember having a Windows phone with a YouTube "app" that was just a link to the YT website

The biggest tragedy here is that Microsoft not only failed themselves, but also took down Nokia with them :(

Windows Phone: *exist*

App developer companies: I've never met this man in my life.

I miss my Windows phone, but yes, the lack of apps sucked!

I never felt so disappointed with a company. I LOVED, I mean LOVED my Lumia and I tried to hang on to it for as long as I could, hoping it would get more popular.

This is a proof that you shouldn't underestimate new competitors just because you're a so called "pioneer"

You forgot to mention a massive mistake Microsoft made. When they were developing Windows Phone they literally developing two versions that were incompatible with each other. Windows Phone 7 was built on Windows CE while Windows Phone 8 was built on the more advanced Windows NT. When they upgraded to Windows 8 they effectively burned their user and developer base. People who purchased a Windows Phone 7 phone will have a phone no longer supported and developers will have to redevelop their app.

I used a windows phone for a year (HTC HD7) and the limited apps was the biggest issue for sure

The Nokia Lumia series looked incredibly good. I owned one myself. The lack of developers on the software side definitely was the nail in the coffin.

Windows powered phones failed simply because not many developers created applications for it. Unlike android which had big niche in the mobile market.

I used Lumia 640 from 2015-2019. That's 4 years. At time of 2015 l, the android phone used to hang a lot so I decided to go for Windows phone and I loved it. But the lack of apps finally compelled me to switch to android.
Still misses the Windows phone a lot.

I loved the tiles on my lumia . Can change the color, size of tiles . Can re - arrange and the live update feature was so cool along with the dark appearance of OS
Microsoft just lost it

This is exactly what happens when MBAs or finance people run organizations. They really can't see past the sales figures.
