I switched to linux a bit over a year ago but had around a decade of feeling like MS and I disagreed about whose computer it was before that. MS has given me many "why the fuck would you do it like this!?" moments.
It's so much nicer using an OS where when something doesn't yet work as I want it to, I don't assume "because the people who made it are greedy assholes" is the reason for it.
Though I'd argue that they aren't just catering to those who pay for it, but also to themselves and various metrics and revenues they want. Like disabling autosave if you aren't saving to onedrive wasn't likely from any corporation other than MS itself.
