Yes and my Ubuntu motd advertises some premium service of theirs. I can choose to be outraged or not outraged, and my life is better if I choose the latter.

Why not just use plain Debian? Uses same package manager etc w/o these... "features".

In contrary to other comments, keep using Ubuntu, just use CTRL+l.

... or change MOTD (/etc/default/motd-news)

I'd rather bash Ubuntu for more controversial actions, like pushing snapd by default. Or pretending apps are .deb packages while they are snaps in disguise.

No, Office has been like this since 2016, where you can only autosave on OneDrive.

That is utterly hilarious. As if somehow the cloud enables autostave more capably than say, your ssd. Microsoft really is a shitshow.

It has been there for a while. On reason or another, I'm glad I don't need to use Office anymore.
