Windows is shitty—don't get me wrong. But for all my coursework it's pretty annoying to do on Linux. Especially Office, and yes I am well aware it's a MS product and that Linux-support will likely never come. Though the limited online version of Office or LibreOffice don't quite cut it for me. Besides, running it with Wine or in a VM is too much of a hassle.

So "Switch to Linux!" is not really a solution for some. Let's hope that'll change in the future.

With that said, fuck Microsoft! I use NixOS btw.

@AnActOfCreation You can re-enable it in the Taskbar settings, though (as you also can hide Copilot the same way?).
