Most of their revenue is tied to other stuff though
1. Productivity / Business (~43%)
Includes:
Microsoft 365 (Office, Teams) - these can be likely ported to Linux if they're not already since they also work on MacOS?
LinkedIn
Dynamics (ERP/CRM)
~$120.8B
2. Cloud (~38%)
Includes:
Azure (runs on mostly linux, and moving cloud provider as a big corp is expensive, I don't see massive companies stuck in azure infra moving from it)
Server products (Windows Server, SQL Server, etc.)
~$106.3B
I fully support the demise of Windows as an OS
But microsoft as a company has shifted away from Windows as their source of revenue, and will probably not be impacted too badly if it were to die completely.

- ImJamal 5mo ago> Microsoft 365 (Office, Teams) - these can be likely ported to Linux if they're not already since they also work on MacOS? I thought the Mac versions were not a full fledged port and were missing features present in Windows.
