I could seriously eat this every meal every day.

Same for me. My company talks a big game, but is bad at audits or detection for authorized devices / unauthorized access.

I wiped my work pc and ran linux daily for a year. Remina for remote management was far better than the native RDP client in Windows. Web based outlook got the job done. Teams app in Windows is just reskinned chrome anyhow. Works just as good in a browser. Had a remote box set up for any thing that absolutely required Windows.
