The petition is open to all EU resident. The goal is to replace all Windows in all public institution in Europe with a sovereign GNU/Linux.

Literally any distro. Windows runs so much shit in the background, it just tanks the battery.

Totally agree that Linux runs soooo much lighter, but Windows still has way more aggressive cpu frequency downscaling. All my laptops from the last runs turboed longer and more often than under Windows. This can be improved with scripts, but is not user friendly.
