I went back to windows for a few months after running linux as my daily driver for years. It was a jarring experience just how bad the basic user experience was. Everything seemed like an attempt at shoving some kind of advert-ainment down my throw when I was just looking for a basic program or file.
I don't understand how an advertising system like this is acceptable for buisnesses? Like if I'm a business and providing work machines to my employees, you sure af aren't going to be making money off my employees, with the machines and electricity I paid for.
It still seems like the "killer app" keeping everyone one Microsoft is Office, and maybe a handful of other proprietary pieces of software.
Enterprise versions can be customised without any of this bullshit.
