With Microsoft bodging the operating system by disabling offline accounts, cramping AI in everything and obviously don’t giving a flying f*** about your personal data: how far did you come sweeping that company from your or your family members life?
For me, it is still hard to evade Microsoft, as for reasons, companies and governments are still buying into that ecosystem (Teams, OneDrive, Office, Azure, …).
Did you manage to cut or phase Microsoft out?



On my personal devices, yes. My main computer has been running on Linux since 2024 and that was a pleasant experience. Everything works. I also do my gaming on the SteamDeck, which also is awesome and does work without any bigger issues. I played some games that were published by publishers that since have been bought by Microsoft. I have no personal Microsoft account , no OneDrive, nothing.
