After twenty years on Debian I just bought a Windows laptop on the strength of WSL2 and Docker for Windows. Being able to play SimCity has been a bonus, and I feel like I have the best of both worlds thanks to recent Windows additions. It isn't perfect but the Linux Desktop experience isn't either. Nor is OSX, in my experience.

My point being: I've been a very stubborn desktop Linux user for a long time and have migrated to Windows. The traffic, I suspect, is going the opposite way to what you seem to expect, at least for now.

And do you also appreciate them gathering lots of telemetry from your use of your computer and taking away your ability to opt out of that?
Why is it all or nothing? I dual boot my machine so I can game. Otherwise I dev' in Linux.
