>The people who still use Windows yet complain about this are quite confusing to me.

What confuses me is how people think theres anything close to an alternative for corporate environments.

Windows isnt Windows. Windows is the best supported OS by the Microsoft cloud stack. They get away with this sort of nonsense because large corps have nowhere to go.

>the cost of switching is just not that high.

Lol, lmao even. The cost of switching one laptop to linux is quite low. The cost of taking an enterprise using Microsoft everywhere to linux is something else entirely.
