Microsoft wants to hide the 'Sign out' button in Windows 11 behind a Microsoft 365 ad

The latest Windows 11 preview build in the Beta Channel delivers a rather odd change to the Start menu. For some reason, the "Sign out" button is hidden behind a Microsoft 365 ad and other banners.

As much as everyone pushes Linux, it’s not a suitable replacement in a lot of scenarios

But it is a suitable replacement in a lot of scenarios. Most scenarios. The only time it isn’t is in niche specialty situations.

The problem is mostly that those niches count up, so that quite a lot of people fit in one of those niches.

I happen to fit in 3 niches at the same time: VR, Music and Professional design.

VR? No linux. Music production? Depending on your VSTs, No linux. Playing Music live? Depending on VSTs, No linux. Professional design? No Linux.

I currently actively trying to switch to Linux, despite its apparant shortcomings in above applications. It's quite the challenge. Wine seems to install quite some stuff, but from what I've read it's a crabshoot if stuff breaks after every update...
