Can we start calling the act of leaving Windows for Linux
"defenestration" please?
NO, why,
DEFENESTRATION definition: the act of throwing a person or thing out of a window
That has nothing at all in common with the act of moving to Linux.

@Kerplunk@mastodon.scot @magnusmanske@wikis.world It’s more what Microsoft is doing to their customers

@magnusmanske@wikis.world @Kerplunk@mastodon.scot Disagree--expression that means throwing Windows out the window is rather apt, IMHO.

@Kerplunk@mastodon.scot @magnusmanske@wikis.world Leaving Windows... Throwing someone out of Windows... Pretty much the same thing, no?
