Win11 pro will not be subject to this requirement.

References? Is there some sort of official statement?

Windows 10 was also not subject to this requirement, yet you're harassed when you try to keep your local login.

Does it matter? MS are back to their old tricks one way or another. Makes me wonder if I should ditch C# and ASP.Net.

Yes you should. They are now pushing the 'your experience is better with a Microsoft account' shit in Visual Studio.

I use VS Mac exclusively. Wondering how long it will be before they try to leverage VS Code. There must now be plenty of young devs who have never used anything else.

Aha I'm glad, thank you for pointing this out! I see now that the article specifically mentions Windows 11 Home only, I should have noticed that.
