Microsoft has ~15 retirements and service changes on the 2026 roadmap. A lot of coverage frames this as chaos. But there's a why behind it. 🧵

At least one ties directly to the Secure Future Initiative. The security overhaul Microsoft kicked off after those high-profile breaches. It's been running quietly in the background. Timelines fit for changes to show up in production now.
