But that's like saying Trump "has to stop." I want him to, and I want MS and other software companies to quit churning their products just to keep selling new versions of them. But 20 years ago they had to stop, and they didn't, and they probably still won't. The answer isn't with them it's with us - we "have to" find alternatives like Linux. Or not. You can complain about the lack of appealing options on whatever menu is already in front of you, or use available solutions that take a bit more effort. It's up to you.
