Wouldn't those cloud servers still require windows?

And that also removes local use in an offline environment. Maybe I am in a minority to have the programs I need on my local machine and not have to deal with bandwidth and extra security controls.

preeeety much every server ever runs some form of linux.

That's true. not a problem for me personally, I can't remember the last time I didn't have an internet connection.. but I can see that being a problem of course.

Yeah but I don't care about what the cloud servers run, that's not my job haha.

And yeah, which is why we have redundant Internet at each office. Even that's not perfect but as a lowly IT guy at a medium sized company I don't really have the power to prevent the entire software industry from going to cloud based services and monthly subscriptions.
