"Linux is a cancer that attaches itself in an intellectual property sense to everything it touches," Ballmer said, back before Linux had metastasized into the Windows Subsystem for Linux.

Nice writing.

And the software? It's complicated.

There have been so many tweaks and changes over the years that working out the exact revision of every part of Voyager's code is tricky.

Gee that sounds familiar...

“All platforms in the EU have to have a dedicated page on their websites where it says how many user numbers they have in the EU and where they are legally established,”

I think that's standard on mastodon and pleroma instances.

Under the DSA, platforms with more than 45 million users in the bloc qualify as “very large online platforms” and need to follow stricter content moderation rules under the commission’s supervision.

Clearly defined rules? How interesting... but moderation is a thing on the fediverse so, meh... maybe mastodon.social has to worry about it.

Smaller platforms are still required to comply with the law, but are regulated by the EU country where they have a legal presence. That’s so far unclear in the case of Bluesky, which was created expressly to avoid a centralized ownership structure.

And yet they're not decentralized yet... if ever. Anyway, servers are physical.

A while back i was looking for instances in the EU and while a few claimed to be from a few different countries, their servers were all in Helsinki...

Are you serious?

and the “we’re closed” international symbol

So not 🙅‍♂️ ? 'Cos what you describe seems like "we'll chop your head off if you don't leave".

If you can, put Windows in a VM instead.

Better LibreOffice/Word compatibility

Not on the MS side for sure, they've always made sure they don't follow their own spec so they can more easily vendor-lock. Typical EEE from the company that coined it.

Windows 10 coming to EOL

That, per se, no, both XP and 7 kept existing for years, but 11 around the corner with ads and recall... that may steer some people away. Edit: as will inflated minimum system requirements at every release.

Web-native apps (Including Msft Office and Adobe)

Those are OS-agnostic and a way to keep using MS apps. Office is one of the hardest to let go (because of aforementioned reasons), especially in a corporate environment - which, most likely, is the bulk of MS customers in terms of revenue.

.Net cross platform (in VSCode or Jetbrains Rider)

Until they change something. EEE, remember?
