What's MS's plan after this? Everyone I know that uses Windows/M365 hate it more with every passing day and is looking to leave.
I really don't want to be in tech support in 2029 when they kill off old outlook. There will be blood on that day.
No one (meaning less than 1% of people) will leave windows (sadly).
People are lazy as shit and rather swipe their credit cards and buy something new with windows than to even give Linux a chance.
99% of people really don't give a shit about privacy or freedom when it comes to computers. Microsoft could slap handcuffs on them and point a camera at their screen (yes MS is already spying with telemetry, but try expaining that to a regular person) and they'd still use windows.
I switched to outlook in browser only because their native windows software is so terrible. Wish I could leave that shit OS entirely.
