It’s very obvious to me that Microsoft wants to ditch on-prem Windows Workstations and even Servers. There is no Office after 2025 for Windows Server anymore. There is no Windows Server after 2022. There is only Windows 10 or 11 in Azure HCI for Enterprise users.
The strategy for Workstations is not yet clear to me, but all products around Windows turn into SaaS.
Learn to use Linux. It’s the only way to have your hardware under your control. Fuck Office… get rid of this piece of shit of software now.
Users aren’t really against using Linux, they don’t even know what OS they are running. The problems are always:
I’m mostly in the second camp. I have some Linux machines, but games keep my main machine on Windows. But the first camp will definitely keep the majority from ever being able to switch.
I can understand that. And in the enterprise environment most users are not able to switch from Office and Outlook. Even if Outlook is not really very great and Office is something you almost never use in a way that LibreOffice is an adequate replacement.
