Issue #19325 has been updated by maximecb (Maxime Chevalier-Boisvert).
Hello @tamaron. There is no update as of yet. One of the challenges is that it's not
easy for us to have access to windows machines, it would be kind of a pain for us to debug
things in a VM. This would also add complexity to our CI test workflow. At the moment
we're focused on servers and Apple hardware.

Feature #19325: YJIT: Windows support lacking.

Ruby's support on windows has always been second class. With some of the recent
decisions, windows support is falling even more behind. Recent developments in mjit and
yjit that exclude windows are two glaring issues that should be corrected. Googling
'percent of windows vs other operating systems' and it shows windows has a share
of 76%. Ceding that users to python and other programming languages has to be one of the
reasons python continues get more market share from ruby. With rust having first class
windows support and threading support, is there a reason why yjit is not able to work on
windows? Also, windows compiler support has matured enough and vcpkg support has evolved
enough that it seems it should be possible to finally get a ruby version without having to
use msys2. Even Crystal language has a version that runs on windows without needing
msys2.
