What can't they do well? Integrate with corporate networks. Try connecting to a network share that has about 750 folders/files plus subfolders. It will take ages for it to actually display the file list. And it does this for every single subfolder too. That's just the first thing that came to mind.
When something doesn't work right and you try to find troubleshooting resources, it's always some forum where some one has the exact same issue, but there's no answer. The whole thread is flooded by mongoloids posting shit like "I unplugged my mouse on the 3rd Saturday of the month during a full moon and now my wifi started working again."
You hit it right - they're for "average" uses. IMO they have no place in the business world but liberals love their shiny facebook computers
I don't use network shares, most people don't now, they're using Box, Dropbox, OneDrive or Google drive. The cooperative MSP I now consult for has 0 on prem "network shares" that's legacy shit.
"Something does not work right" what something exactly? I haven't had an experience where things "didn't work right" on Win an linux though...
IBM saved millions switching to them, no place in business?
Network shares are "legacy shit"? I can't even imagine the cost of hosting 800Tb of engineering files on Dropbox let alone the clusterfuck that would be administering permissions on those files for thousands of users.
Please explain to me how one would link user RDS profiles to a fucking Dropbox. Or how would I go about installing SQL to Google drive. You clearly don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

Yeah because all the heavy lifting you're doing is probably browsing the web and doing a zoom call. Tell you what - the next time I get a ticket about their stupid security permissions not populating, or it refusing to set a default program I'll let you know. Since you never have any problems at all with Macs I'm sure your input will super valuable.
It's easier than on prem. We usually implement Sharepoint. It takes about an hour usually to get permissions setup, and new files are scripted through power automate to get the right perms in special cases. 800TB on O365 costs far less than 800TB of spinning rust.
RDS is provided by Azure AD, give a person a new comp, they sign in, it sets itself up, file access and all, using OneDrive. If using dropbox, SSO takes care of that. I think you misunderstand Google Drive, it's file storage, you don't install anything to it.
Heavy lifting: editing videos, advanced adobe photoshop, as one of the girlfriends is working much more on her art, Running marine navigation software and chartplotting, monitoring the charge controller and all sensors, interpreting the radar. Coding in python/C get all the above to work. Never had an issue with setting a default program, sounds like a windows thing.
You sound like I used to, unwilling to really give it a shot, because you're stuck in the past.
