The writing is on the wall–I suspect the next Windows OS will be a subscription service. Gather your ISOs while ye may.

    3 things I’m still looking to get in one distro and Windows will be gone. Not looking to have my desk/lap turn into another ad platform like phones did.

    Easy drive mapping for remote shares, most have this but some are a bit clunky.

    Solid games support, mostly a WINE thing. One called Bazzite looks promising with a pile of pre-configured profiles.

    Easy and reliable connection to a DC so the same creds can be used across multiple machines. This is probably the hardest part in Nix at this point.

    Otherwise pretty well every app I use is web based and hosted on some local server, or has a Nix native variant.
