    I’m not saying Linux is superior to Windows, that would be a opinion. But for anyone outside of gamers (Steam Deck…) or business folks, it IS the better option. The issue is Dell isn’t going to ship Ubuntu by default, for example. It’s all subsidiaries, all the way down. FOSS just cannot throw their weight around like M$.

        From what I can tell these days Microsoft only wants to compete with services not so much software these days. The operating system to them is just a tool to sell ads and to get you places. They haven’t cared about power users for the last 8 years.
