Windows 7 users are switching to forks that still support the OS, like r3dfox, Pale Moon, Mypal, and Supermium. Home users stuck with 7 and 8 probably won't upgrade or try Linux, they didn't even update to 10 for some reason (and it was free!) .

Did you try OnlyOffice? I heard it has good compatibility with Microsoft Office's files, it's available on almost every OS, and looks easy to use. However, I'm not sure if you can create very complex documents like with Office.

The most annoying bloatware I found on a laptop is HP Analytics. Its only purpose is to get data from you and sell it. It works in the background and you only notice it because the laptop is slow for unknown reasons. To "delete it", you must disable its service. If you want, you can change its folders permissions so you can delete them as admin. But it will install itself again in a few weeks and you will have to remove it once more, unless you never update Windows and drivers. HP Analytics works like a malware, but antivirus won't detect it. And you can find this on every HP modern laptop, so it's very common.

I'm glad nobody is mentioning WhatsApp as an alternative. They released usernames a few months ago, all messages are end-to-end encrypted, will add voice and video calls to WhatsApp Web, many people and companies have an account there already... It would be an easy migration, but awful for privacy. Thankfully, the most similar suggestions I found were Telegram and Signal.

Roblox is asking for the same thing to use chat in-game, but they split people in age groups (9-12, 18-20…), and you can only talk to players in your age group.

Now Discord users are furious and canceling Nitro. I wonder where they will go if the update gets released.
