    Shouldn’t they just support Linux more? Maybe fund some driver development but otherwise - win?

      One would think.

      Linux costs next to nothing compared to Windows. So if companies want to cry about having to save on budget, go with the better option for it.

      Who the fuck needs Office 365? Nothing has really changed on that software for years, it’s still the same shit. I don’t see anything different on Microsoft Word 2007 from it’s 365 counterpart. People are getting scammed.

          My gf recently took one of those dumb ability tests on Indeed for an office job, shows you two screenshots of document editing and you answer which buttons achieve the desired effect. I opened Word on my laptop and all of the buttons were in different places compared to screenshots.

          MS, just go sit down somewhere and stop fiddling with shit

      I’m not too familiar with that side of things but I do believe they do. My understanding is that some organizations are set up as nonprofits and they contribute to the development of Linux.

      Some European governments also use foss software for things like email and office.

      But it’s easier to throw darts at a big company than lots of small things that add up to something big.
