China joins Europe in scrapping Windows for Linux
- phs318u 25d agoA bit of blue-sky mining here. What if this trend continues and accelerates? Microsoft have 3 options: 1. Continue their merry way and cede market share. 2. De-enshitify Windows and win back market share. 3. If you can’t beat them, join them. Release a desktop Linux distro. I believe that while they may aim for option 2, I can’t see it being that successful. Which for me, implies an eventual officially supported Office for Linux (to preserve/grow Office market share by decoupling it from Windows).
