Never mind Windows 365, I’ve yet to move on to Windows 11. Tried a few times and never liked it.

This seems like a really bad idea. Are there any examples of this that Lemmians are familiar with? Certainly can’t play games on it. Right?

      We have Valve’s Proton. The Prophet Gabe has prophesized the Evils of M$ and its anti-Consumerist Bill Gates (Satan-Borg). In His wisdom, Gabe has prepared for us our salvation. Praise Valve!

    I feel like the threat to “kill off desktop PCs” has been going for years, yet it has never eventuated. I’m a bit too old and too tired of all the threats/clickbait lately to even start to worry about it actually happening.

    If it does, I’ll find an alternative, but I very highly doubt it will happen anytime soon.

    More likely the end of desktop Windows. But I wouldn’t take my bet on it as Windows users often tend to accept everything Microsoft does, sooner or later.

      People leaving Windows en masse needs three things:

      1. Continued enshitification, which will likely continue.
      2. More apps (games, productivity, etc.) having native support for Linux, or at least a viable alternative.
      3. Linux devs to prioritize user friendliness over gatekeeping/“just use macros” mentality.

      I’m heavily thinking on moving to Linux in the future, likely when I’ll need to reinstall my OS. Then I’ll only keep around Windows for testing purposes.
