    It is actually a competitor. Mean Microsoft have to improve if they want to keep the users. With the Windows 10 EOL soon they will give up on those users on those computers. Basically forcing anyone else to take care of them - Linux stands there welcome. Users just need a push or someone saying try this for free.

      Most people will just raw dog it, and keep running their computer without windows support.

      Yeah, but providing that push at the wrong time… Maybe I just presented it the wrong way. I think there was some snootiness to how I advocated it. Like I knew more than them, which might be the case… but it’s still alienating.

      Maybe we can wait until they ask.
