  2. Your post, included comments, or your title/comment should include some kind of commentary or remark on the subject of the screen capture. Your title must include at least one word relevant to your post.
  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.
  5. Doctored posts/images and AI are allowed, but discouraged. You MUST indicate this in your post (even if you didn't originally know). If an image is found to be fabricated or edited in any way and it is not properly labeled, it will be deleted.

You don’t think anyone would deploy Linux if 100% of employees wanted it over Windows? It only took about 10% (based on how many people I saw using it) at LinkedIn before they started offering it. Admittedly, that’s a tech company, but it’s also owned by Microsoft, and they still let us use Linux. And that was in ~2018, when Windows wasn’t that bad.

I know from experience. Moving to Mac is more likely, but that comes with higher costs. And most non-tech people are deep in the M$ Office/365 and even Windows tends to be too complicated for them. Many of them can't even follow two picture instructions, let alone move to another OS.
