Op article is from 2020.
This Microsoft article https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/maui/what-is-maui is dated 30 January 2023 and still uses the MAUI brand name, so Microsoft have not fixed their mistake
This should be a slam dunk case of copyright infringement for the original Maui project. Isn't this the sort of thing EFF (EFFE?) should be fighting in the courts on behalf of small open source projects?
From the article (from original Maui's response):
Exactly this has happened. On both Google and DuckDuckGo (partially Bing?) all the top results are Microsoft Maui, you have to scroll down for original Maui
also got confused; this was posted 3 years ago but Hot sort seems to be pulling up a bunch of old posts
