There’s no mass exodus towards Linux in the business user space.
It’s still 99.9% Microsoft Windows.
Comment on How/why does Microsoft teams exist?

I use Linux on my personal computer, I had to stick to windows during my uni days (may be because of loads of reports I had to write) but expected something better from their pro version?

Yeah, it sucks. Windows used to be dependable and solid, the whole point of the OS was IT JUST WORKS. They had some downturns in the past (Vista, 8) but you could just skip those. XP, 7, etc. Now though? There is no skipping 11, not if you want security updates. They could have made Copilot it’s own app that you can ignore, but no, even notepad needs AI for some reason. The start menu has ads, the notification center has ads.
Finally pushed me to switch to Mint this past year. My SO followed too. Been happier with it. Feels like I’m in control of the OS again, and it is there to do what I wish. Never going back.

If I need to write a report, I can write it in nano, fuckall with the font formatting and all. If the person reading my report can’t accept my report on an algorithm to generate the value of pi unless it’s formatted with a particular page layout, then fuck them.
If they’re more worried about fonts and page layouts than the actual content of the text and fomulas, then they don’t know how to read in the first place.

Loads of formating for reports can be done with text only as well. Markdown or LaTeX, to name just two.
