The job pays well, I make software I like, I have clients I like, and I don’t have to work with Google Chrome. Yes, I don’t like windows. No, I won’t look for a new job just because of windows.

Yes, but I do have to use that crappy windows bullshit machine 😭

Software is Windows only? Make them let you use interoperable formats compatible with more ethical Unix-based software.

In my case all of the software I use in my field is windows only and will likely never have support for Linux.
