How many people have such work envs?

I hate that people (not you) keep saying "Linux is for tech people only" and "My workflow is super Windows specific".

Like is both are true, fine, but that must be like 0.1% of users.

    anyone who needs microsoft office. or the adobe suite. or visual studio. or autoCAD. or…

    there’s a lot of professional creation software that’s not on linux. and yes, we have alternatives, and they’re cool, but they don’t work for everyone.

    Office is online nowadays...

    And what is the percentage of users who need such specific software?

    Depends on the organization. During my time at an MSP I saw plenty of orgs that could be switched to Linux tomorrow if the desire arose because everything happens in a web browser, but I also saw orgs where virtually every computer user was using different verieties of CAD so compatibility with both CAD and their fancy architectural plotters was business critical
