This probably isn't a popular option, but a lot of the recent hate on Microsoft have been standard practice for Apple for a long time.
Windows 10 free update length? 10 years. Mac? 5-7 years.
Baked in cloud backup? Yeah, Apple has been doing that for a while and a lot of things go to the cloud by default. If you have an iPhone or iPad, things you download go to iCloud by default.
It seems like Microsoft is trying to follow Apple's model.
I do get not wanting to support windows 10 anymore. The CPU limitations on Win 11 are very dumb, but it's something Apple has been doing for decades. I will be installing mint on my old desktop.
I give them less grace with OneDrive. That rollout has been very naggy and shitty.
