I think what you posted is great and should be read by people on the fence.

But conversly, I quit windows when XP came out becausei wanted to stop playing Microsoft's games. There were enshittifying back then and it only has got worse.

I even admin Microsoft systems for a living, have access to nearly every product that make for free, and I still will never use windows at home. Even managing azure or SQL databases or having to use products that are windows only I do it through a Linux machine. Sometimes by pushing commands, sometimes with remote desktop. But I do it because Linux just works, I can count on it. Not so much windows or Microsoft.
