  But I am talking about 6 USD per YEAR - that’s what’s written in the original post: 180000 USD per YEAR. I checked, that municipality has about 30000 employees. So 6 USD per user per YEAR, which is completely unrealistic.

  I’m guessing it’s a really small state with not much IT going on.

  A small organization will have higher software license prices per user than a large one.

  Yes, I am 100% sure: you responded to my comment where I say that 6 EUR/year/user won’t cover even Windows. I wasn’t talking about license capabilities (what’s included and what’s not), purely regarding the cost.

  Mate, are you sure you don’t confuse per year and per month numbers? Those 180000 is per YEAR (for 30000 users)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨public services of an entire german state switches from Microsoft to open source (Libreoffice, Linux, Nextcloud, Thunderbird)⁩ ⁨⁨13⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago⁩:

  50 cents per user per month doesn’t make any sense: I think for MS it might be cheaper to give products for free than to process these payments

  Note that that number (180000 is per year, not per month)

  The cheapest M365 I see is 8 USD/month, not per year

  If a phone needed a case/screen protector, they would had it built in (i.e. made the actual phone casing/screen stronger).

  I use a phone w/o a case, I dropped it multiple times, its metal bezels have successfully protected it so far - the screen hasn’t cracked.

  Modern MS infra administration is far from “navigating arcane GUIs”: it’s all about PowerShell, IaC, automation etc.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨public services of an entire german state switches from Microsoft to open source (Libreoffice, Linux, Nextcloud, Thunderbird)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  It isn’t or the op posted the wrong number: 6 EUR/user/year is nothing for organizations

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨public services of an entire german state switches from Microsoft to open source (Libreoffice, Linux, Nextcloud, Thunderbird)⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  Certainly not this one: 6 EUR/user/year doesn’t cover even Windows

  1. So as Google Photos
  2. Any privacy-focused service will be a paid one - how else will they make money?
