Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot.

Switch to Linux!

As a Linux user myself, let me tell you that telling people what they should/must do this is how you make people plainly ignore you and think you're just an annoying person.
People will keep using what works for them, be it Windows/Linux/MacOS even if with minor inconveniences. Same goes for browsers/services/etc...
"Microsoft continually makes their OS worse, but every time they do, Linux users come into the comment section telling me I should switch, so I'm not going to."
Get AutoCAD on Linux and I'm there buddy. Some of us need to work.
True, the biggest sore points of Linux is Windows software support. This probably won't work for you because you seem to use AutoCAD for work, but for me I was able to just find alternatives to programs that were not available anymore when I switched to Linux.
For sure. I would love to ditch Autocad, but that would require me convincing my entire industry. I hate AutoCAD.
Industry Standard software is just a fancy way of saying "Monopoly"
Sure, but it's also not easy to pivot an entire workforce to a new software platform. I work in architecture and the industry on a whole runs on the smallest possible margins and is managed by boomers that can barely mark up a pdf.
This seems to suggest they can download, locate, possibly extract, and then open one.
I'm genuinely awe struck. Yours are practically self-reliant compared to ours! :(
It's OK if it's FOSS. Imagine if Adobe Acrobat was FOSS and PDF was an open standard - it would have double the features and 10 times less suck.
PDFs have been an open standard since 2008.
