Inspired by website killed by googledeveloper Victor Frye has opened Microsoft Graveyard, a virtual graveyard for the company’s discontinued services. When products and platforms are abandoned by the company, they gain space on the site.
The “Microsoft graveyard” already has a list of dozens of abandoned products. Services listed include Cortana, Windows Mixed Reality, and Windows 8.1.
The list also Includes services with fixed end datesLike Windows 10, whose support is expected to end in November 2025, and the Xbox 360 Store, which is scheduled to end in July of this year.
Each Microsoft Graveyard element is linked to a Wikipedia page or article where the user can find more information about the service.
Microsoft Graveyard is an open source project and anyone can contribute to its GitHub page.
The Microsoft Cemetery is the second cemetery dedicated to services abandoned by MS. In 2022, another project with a very similar proposal, “Killed by Microsoft”, was launched, also inspired by “Killed by Google”.
Similarly, the old site also accepts contributions from the community and is open to queries on GitHub.
