I figure I'd post something relevant besides ranting- Two weeks ago I changed my main office computer to Mint to do my job (IT Support) without Windows.. I'm glad to report it's been working great and I can see it as a replacement for users in certain scenarios; in fact, we'll probably start implementing it albeit slowly as we see fit.

There's nothing I havent been able to do so far: email, RDP, ssh, etc etc. Most of the apps we use have a Web version, so that aws easy. For remote support we use Meshcentral, so nothing to change there, For email I've just been using M365 Web apps; we also have TSPlus for Remote Windows Apps (mostly Office) but so far I havent really needed it. I left my old Windows box plugged in so I could RDP to it in case of an emergency but so far, nothing. I understand it's not the 90's anymore and the OS has become mostly invisible but the way Microsoft is handling their products and support has made me look for options. We also use LAMP servers (Ubuntu) instead of IIS where we can. Thank you for reading.
