If this happens, will it be a mass exodus to Linux/Mac? Or will people just live with it? The fact that the Steam Deck has shown great promise in playing games on Linux has made me reconsider Windows yet again.

I mean, you don't have to use Edge, any modern browser should work. I use Brave mainly, and have not had any issues with O365. You can use OneDrive on the browser, but even if you want it synchronized to your desktop there's a few ways to sync it to Linux:

Thanks for sharing.

I used Brave for a few years and just recently switched to Firefox . No real reason.
