at this point is there even a reason to use windows? I genuinely want to know from windows users, why are you still on this operating system?

for many years (since windows 8.1) I switched to using only linux (and at times macos), and I have never regretted my decision; what keeps you using this hellish platform?

I can't manage to get any architecture software working so that's a whole field, but they do have MacOS, so being rich bastards that's a good option for them.

My partner refuses to even look at it until there's full version excel support. Anyone who uses excel in a business capacity can't switch

This is where I'm at; upper management has already greenlit moving all data to a OneLake Data Hub so the rank and file can try power bi instead of excel for everything. Suggesting moving away from their ecosystem at this point is moot
