Trust me, it’s already worth it. Literally every other operating system in existence is better than windows. I’d use Temple OS before going back.

And a lot of linux programs take inspiration from Microsoft's design because they're the norm. When you think of a word processor you think of Word, same goes for all of Office 365 actually.

I think of Word 2007. All downhill after that...

Edit: Or was it 2011? I can't even remember anymore..
