I do count “running commercial software” as a need of mine. I would not be using Linux if I couldn’t run Windows games on Steam, 1Password, Slack, Discord, etc.
Nobody’s forcing you to install Teams, and someone out there is breathing a sigh of relief because they have another option besides Mac and Windows for running the programs they need to run.
I’m not really in a race to be the most opinionated user on the planet who refuses to use an app with a … or + menu, I just want a good OS that runs any program I might need.
