So my boss won’t have to pay me for Microsoft Office, even though I can’t use it on Linux? I suppose that’s a win

Nice, that means more businesses will finally be able to escape the total microsoft dependence and just use the products they need.
You mean Microsoft will recoup the cost of unbundling by charging more per product compared to the previous bundle, given that it’s now different products?
'cause at work the powers that be has gone all-in on MS and this decision won’t change a bit their “strategy”.
Of course they will, but the fact that businesses don’t have to buy everything as a pack means that they will consider alternatives to office and onedrive instead of just using what they pay for already.
One can hope.

The unbundling is largely targeted at enterprises, as Microsoft will keep bundling Teams in its Microsoft 365 Business plans that are offered to small businesses.

It’s force installed with Windows, this doesn’t seem like news.
That’s actually a different Microsoft teams. Not the same thing…
They seem to have failed to address one major issue. You can’t have teams working with a domain and a non Office 365 email service, that’s a bummer and the only way to get around it is to use funky addresses on teams like person@company.onmicrosoft.com. This is simply an anti-competitive practice from Microsoft to force companies into Office 365 E-mail. There’s no technical reason for this.
So we’ll have to assign and pay for teams licencing now?
In the same way they unbundled internet explorer in win 7 but left it there anyway?
Can you easily have multiple tenants open at once yet? My company will be adopting it until then because we work with clients that also use teams.
