    I wish we did with more open source and local software. My school in Canada has some agreement with Microsoft so we have to use everything from them.
    The school mail used for all accounts is hosted by outlook
    The databases are all azure
    The 2fa app on our phone to boot the school computer has to be Microsoft (even gave me shit because I am root…)
    Teams
    We had a whole course for a year on how to use word.

    It’s a public school. Obviously with this most students will move to the USA for higher pay, we are literally subsidizing the USA education.

      The school board here uses Google, and Microsoft… I emailed their board and the province’s privacy commissionaire asking why. I grew up with an agenda, and that shit worked better than using a website and email for JK/SK aged kids.
