The consolidation of progress into the hands of a few should be fought against at (almost any) cost. Run Linux!!

But the how will I run MS Teams, office365 and OneDrive?

(I’m only partially kidding, sigh…)

If you’re serious, they all have web apps. I use them on my linux box all the time. Ripped the certs off my corp. laptop.

Teams: several options

Office 365: several options

OneDrive: several options

95% of corporate environments: 1-2 options. Windows or macOS for the chosen few.

At least the overloads I have worked for don’t allow us access unless the machine is locked down so hard that it’s borderline unusable.

I’m past the edit time, but “unless” should be “and”

Word on the street is that port 53 tends to stay open. YMMV.

The problem is that we typically can’t install software. Also subverting the corporate firewall can result in a rapid loss of income.
