With Microsoft bodging the operating system by disabling offline accounts, cramping AI in everything and obviously don't giving a flying f*** about your personal data: how far did you come sweeping that company from your or your family members life?

For me, it is still hard to evade Microsoft, as for reasons, companies and governments are still buying into that ecosystem (Teams, OneDrive, Office, Azure, ...).

Did you manage to cut or phase Microsoft out?

Did you manage to cut or phase Microsoft out?

I cut Apple out of mine, never was much into Microsoft but I have been an Apple user since the early 80s. But, yeah I cut it out (to regain my privacy and stop wasting perfectly fine device because of forced upgrade cycles), and I do not miss Apple the slightest. That was 6 years ago, maybe a little more.
