Reality check on Microsoft (www.windowscentral.com)

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?

Tried to Install Linux Mint in my sisters laptop. Ext4 cannot be created. Its an onboard ssd.

Will try to Tinker around with Ubuntu and enroll MOK through that, before setting Up Mint. But I'm unsure since I've read more Problems than solution to this model.
