This might actually get people to go to Linux or even just give up on PCs entirely. A lot of people just use their phones as general computing devices as it is.

I already hate Windows 11. If they try to push this on me it's over.

For me it is gaming support and HDR. (I have a HTPC connected to my 4k HDR OLED TV)

From my understanding HDR support on Linux is still in its infancy. I own a Steamdeck and gaming support is getting really good with Proton.

Even gaming support isn't gonna make me pay a subscription fot Windows. Subscription for the basic OS that I already paid for is just unacceptable. At worst I'll just stay at an older version indefinitely or, you know, seek another way.

Depends how much the subscription is, tbh.
