    You don’t think anyone would deploy Linux if 100% of employees wanted it over Windows? It only took about 10% (based on how many people I saw using it) at LinkedIn before they started offering it. Admittedly, that’s a tech company, but it’s also owned by Microsoft, and they still let us use Linux. And that was in ~2018, when Windows wasn’t that bad.

      I know from experience. Moving to Mac is more likely, but that comes with higher costs. And most non-tech people are deep in the M$ Office/365 and even Windows tends to be too complicated for them. Many of them can’t even follow two picture instructions, let alone move to another OS.
