My Computer to This Device

Once we were users. Now we're the used. "My Computer" -----> "This PC" "My Computer" ---> "This PC" More like "My Computer" ----> "This device". Microsoft loves to treat the Personal Computer as though it was a gd tablet.

A dark-mode screenshot of an online discussion criticizing Microsoft’s renaming of “My Computer” to “This PC” and its tablet-like treatment of personal computers. The joke is that modern PCs are being treated as generic devices, making users feel like they are being used by the technology rather than using it. It is shared as a sarcastic reaction to software design changes, corporate rebranding, or unwanted simplification.
