Workplaces are all about the apps. If those apps you need only run in Windows, that’s what you run. Believe me, businesses would LOVE to cut license costs.
Been a Linux user for 20+ years but windows WAS my daily driver the last 5 of them… got fed up with all the ads and plans for the screen recording and pulled the plug. Linux 100% for me again!
I was getting a couple of pop up ads in my Win10 install, and I switched a couple of months ago. The more I looked at gaming, the more I realized it could be done.
I play a fair bit too. (That’s why I’m here.) People tend to underestimate the selection of games for Linux, always mentioning stuff like Tux Race and the likes. Even before Proton, you could run a lot of stuff; for example I got Cult of the Lamb, Celeste and Cuphead here, those aren’t exactly “old” games (although not exactly fresh either - I’m a patient player).
Thank you, Microsoft, for this wonderful opportunity! 🤭
No, seriously. How much of this increase is caused by obnoxious, assumptive, shitty, user-hostile decisions that Microsoft recently took?
My switch is.
Same. I’d have stayed on Windows if Microsoft had just not been so determined to make using the OS so dreadful while also harvesting my personal data.
I’m curious about work vs home use too. I’m guessing if you take out computers where Microsoft is mandated, it’d be more of a stark difference
