This feels like such a fuck you to working class. People can’t afford another layer of these costs right now.
... This is bait right? You want somebody to tell you there's a simple and free solution, and then you're going to say it's a bad solution?
FINE! I'll bite: Pirated copy of Windows Enterprise LTSC. It's less useful, more resource hungry, privacy invasive and has worse support for older hardware than Linux though.
Objectively speaking Linux is not a Windows replacement, its a minix replacement and competes with FreeBSD. Not everyone wants Linux and tbh I wouldnt reccomend Linux to most people.
Written from a mobile phone powered by a minix replacement.
