There’s barely anything you “need” Windows for anymore. Especially as something like 99% of most people’s PC usage is web (including cloud-hosted Office type apps).

    You say this, but you haven't met all the programs I have to use for work.

    The solution to this is to organize with your coworkers and seize the means of production, and then vote to use only Free, Libre, and Open Source Software from now on. Easy peasy.

    I work in IT support, the options for good, and Foss software on the technician side of most RMM tools.... Vanishing small, if any.

    There's a lot of platforms that support monitoring and management on the client side, but when it comes to technician side tools, GFL. Most vendors don't even mention it at all, fewer support anything other than Windows. FOSS isn't concerned about the IT support folks because almost all FOSS is made by people who can build their own computer and don't need support.
