Lucky for me I only use my windows work laptop to remote into Linux.
Comment on Microsoft is bringing annoying Windows 11 Start menu ads to Windows 10
UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoSadly, I’m at a Microsoft office and do not have this option for my work machine.
It does look like I’ll be forced into Linux on my personal machine before too long, though.

Similarly, I use my windows work laptop for accessing remote (usually Linux) systems, and a few specific apps that are windows only.
My desktops are Linux (and of course my servers here as well), and I have a windows VM for those tools that are windows only that I need. Which I’ve modified that VM heavily to not have the normal junk from windows.
A recent decision for “security” will require using AAD joined machines only to access email/teams/etc. I was going to make an exception for my machines, then decided against it. My laptop now just sits off to the side, with only teams and outlook running, and its basically all I’ll use it for.

Well, I actually use Linux to remote into my work computer, to remote into Linux. I hate using a laptop at my desk, so I just stuck it on the shelf near the router.

That sucks. I use Ubuntu and SSH into redhat machines.

Not much to be done with a work machine, but for personal use, I believe the more people moving away from Windows the better.
