It would help all of their competitors. A non zero number of people would move from windows to each of the others.
Whether or not the number moving away from windows and on to each of the others is significant or not is a different matter.
The biggest thing helping Linux right now is Valve’s work improving the gaming experience, IMO.
Even the rumor of this makes Valve’s focus on Linux seem that much smarter.
I’ve never used Linux but if Microsoft goes subscription I’m out and I’ll be learning Linux.
NGL PopOs is easy and the works with steam/most things easily.
I really hope Windows doesn’t go subscription based because of the proliferation of ads.
Fucking thank you. What the fuck is with human beings and this “all or nothing” attitude? Is it new or has it always been this way? I see it across every damn subsection of humanity but especially in diet and exercise but computing too with this shit here and “everyone needs to abandon reddit and twitter for mastodon and lemmy!” like – no, we can go slowly. MS can hit a jugular and bleed out but you can bleed out from internal bleeding or a thousand paper cuts too.
