Don't you love it the ability to compile and run software on your hardware is controlled by a third party over the internet?

I sure love the SAAS future we are heading forwards.

I’m slowly transitioning as competently as I can.

Mentally I'm there. But in terms of convenience I'm not. Thankfully my entire workflow has been done with OSS compatible with linux in mind so switching over is little more than an inconvenience for me. It all started because I couldn't use specific software in my workflow with linux...even if I paid for it. So then I started looking for good OSS alternatives and now I've basically become OS agnostic.
