After 40 years of being free Microsoft has added a paywall to Notepad
If you want full access to Notepad, Microsoft now requires users to pay, with the new changes to 40-year-old software adopting the 'freemium' model.

At this point anyone that voluntary uses windows is just braindead. I love Linux but if you don't wanna use that then even Mac is better than that... For now
Just to clarify, when you say voluntarily does that except people who need specific programs that just can't be used on Linux? Because it would in my mind.
I disagree, VR, simflight, good cad software, archicad (or if you are somehow deep in stockholm syndrome) adobe need windows. Also smaller stuff like race datalogger data analysis program doesn't exist on linux. Linux does not have enough users to have solutions for everything. Yet. For kernel AC games, they are bad rehashes anyway and there's 20 alternative games for each that are better.
Did you mean to suggest that Mac is better than Linux? In what way?
They meant better than what MS is doing. Basically Linux would be choice one, but failing that get a Mac. Until they go the same direction.
Ye exactly
Gotcha. Thanks for clarifying.
If you buy a mac, you just prepaid the subscription fee in the hardware price. Then they hook you into an environment where you have to pay it for every new device.
I'd argue buying a PC you have to opt in to subscriptions, buying a Mac you can't opt out.
