People will never switch. I see at my work how colleagues just learn how to accept the endless shit without even reacting to it anymore.

Every time Netflix raises prices their subscriber numbers jump. There are people out there who pay for Netflix with ads.

I have some niche software for my racecar I can't seem to get to run on Linux and it's the only reason I'm still on Windows. Although now that I've finally got a new desktop, I can dual boot again.

Oh and I run a few games via the Xbox app so that kinda keeps me on there as well.

I have a copy of Techstream for my Toyotas that will only run on Windows. My laptop is set up to run it inside an XP VM with USB passthrough. Works just fine that way.

Yeah I might just set my laptop to be my only Windows device. I still don't think there's a way around the Xbox app though.
