So I've got a wacky conspiracy theory about this and all the hardware shortages, ai datacenters, etc. The tech companies are trying to position themselves for "cloud only computing devices" being the only affordable option for most people. The you'll own nothing and like it model.
This is their wet dream, but I'll never participate.
Edit: I don't participate now. I pay for no subscriptions, no streaming services, and I use no cloud services. Oh, and I'm now completely Microsoft-free since October last year.
One of us, one of us!
