That and backwards compatibility for Win7 & Win10. Shares of those OSs have gone up and several application developers have announced continued support or are advocating for unlocking/keeping secure those OSs.
I have said the same as well. Prior to them dropping the fat grumpy that is 11, I was all in on the windows ecosystem for myself. I heavily modified it of course so it didn’t have a bunch of the nonsense but overall, the experience was good. But then they started warping 10, and then they came out with 11 which was massive garbage at release and now is worse garbage years down the road. And with that AI outlook, I’m full on bailing from everything.
Microsoft is doing more for Linux adoption than anyone else ever has lol
Honestly, big shoutout to Microsoft for the strong push to get me in Linux’s loving embrace.
Double shoutout to them for making it very easy to not even considering to come back.

Source?
And Mac.
Yes definitely, but mentioning anything good about Apple on Lemmy gets you stitches…
I mean there’s good reason for that but MacOS is kinda in between Windows and Linux, in terms of usability and shitfuckery.
Switched to a Mac 11 years ago and never looked back. Their OS is stellar.
stellarly bad
There isnt anything good.
I would rather manage Apple ecosystem devices for family than Windows any day of the week.
Your comment is only proving my point.
