#Microsoft planning monthly fee for #Windows Home users? https://www.ghacks.net/2023/10/05/a-consumer-subscription-version-of-windows-may-be-just-around-the-corner/ "Microsoft could launch a subscription-based version of Windows as soon as next year. It could also use the rumored launch of Windows 12 in 2025 to add a subscription option and maybe announce other major changes to Windows at the same time." MS doesn't make much from home PC users other than vendors' bulk license fees, so they may consider losing us to #Linux as a 'feature, not a bug.'
