Yup! The only remaining Windows system I personally use is my work laptop. I feel like its lack of customizability holds back my workflow but I've kept Windows on it so I don't get rusty for when I need to support my users. At this point I think I'll just spin up a decommissioned box for Windows testing and finally throw Linux onto my work system.
You're so right that we're all beta-testers now. If I recall correctly, MS and Google both laid off a ton of their QA people like 10 years ago and now the customers are functionally QA. Our M365 tenant just dealt with over two straight weeks of email issues. According to the actual MS advisory, this was due to a code update pushed to production to "increase reliability." No shit!
