That cool. So stuck on a decade old OS.

Windows is a cancer y’all let run rampant while worrying about side loading, App Stores and removable batteries.

Meanwhile MS has doubled down on their monopoly, all the while going all in on the “Windows as service”, which as many of you have discovered, is about ads and telemetry over actual improvements to the core OS.

I have to use Adobe Creative Suite for my job. By have to, I mean have to, because I get client files that are in proprietary formats, and my RIP software is only available for PC. It doesn't matter if I would prefer going back to XP, or even 3.1; that's simply not an option for me professionally.

Also, my work station doesn't belong to me, and you can be that if I changed the OS to a linux distribution I'd be looking for a new job pretty goddamn fast.
