If this happens, will it be a mass exodus to Linux/Mac? Or will people just live with it? The fact that the Steam Deck has shown great promise in playing games on Linux has made me reconsider Windows yet again.

    I happened to have just made the switch to Linux Mint the other day. I’m glad I did, because this would have made me switch anyway.

    I imagine a lot of people will live with it. As well, Windows is used extensively by businesses, and their offices already require a constant internet connection to meaningfully function anyway.
