I'm already using Linux alot, and Windows 10 sometimes. I would drop Windows entirely if it were subscription model.

Just wondering, why do you still sometimes use windows 10?

Some specialized industry software might only be developed for windows.

I'm considering moving to linux for my main daily driver, but the 3d scanning tools I use is only available for windows so I'm keeping a machine nearby.

You can thank Microsoft sabotage for that fact.
