Are you afraid to provide any reference to your claim? Do you need extra time making up stuff?
“Die 43 000 städtischen Mitarbeiterinnen und Mitarbeiter nutzen also mittlerweile wieder Word, Outlook und PowerPoint […] Einfacher sei die Software-Frage bei den Servern im städtischen Rechenzentrum zu beantworten. Zwar haben man durchaus auch Windows-Server, aber die meisten laufen mit Linux, so Gernhardt.” (29.

So Linux on servers, Windows including MS Office on desktops. The migration to Linux on desktops was completely reversed.
So where is ““hell no!” (prob in German) and continued the Linux rollout”? Where has it been “garbage misinformation”? Where are the exact stats about opening tickets? After all, you claim “Linux users filling only 40% the number of tickets the Windows users did”. That’s pretty specific.
“In May 2020, it was reported that the newly elected politicians in Munich, while not going back to the original plan of migrating to LiMux wholesale, will prefer Free Software for future endeavours.”
There are no official numbers, but the rollback to Windows was halted. It’s estimated that it’s currently a mix of Linux and Windows. And it’s been acknowledged that the move back to Windows was almost entirely political due to influence from Microsoft.
“In May 2020, it was reported that the newly elected politicians in Munich, while not going back to the original plan of migrating to LiMux wholesale, will prefer Free Software for future endeavours.”
So you lied. You claimed that Munich said “Hell no” to Microsoft Migration but here you spell it out yourself: The politicians did sell out to Microsoft and only newly elected politicians partially reversed it.
They use Windows and MS Office on desktops to this day and use Linux on servers and some FOSS tools ON WINDOWS DESKTOPS.

I know for a fact that there are no official numbers, and it’s estimated to be a split between the two OSes.

Ya, I’m not sure which part confuses you, but I’ll try to help:
Politician A sells out to MS
Migration back to Windows begins
Politician B gets elected
Politician B says “hell no” (hyperbole) to Microsoft switch back
Cannot read a German news article about German news? Your problem. I’m 100% correct.
Politician A sells out to MS
The previous administration did.
Migration back to Windows begins
Which the previous administration did do and the new administration did not reverse on desktops. Windows and MS Office remain in use.
Politician B says “hell no” (hyperbole) to Microsoft switch back
There was no “hell no”. They adopted a few FOSS tools on Windows. Windows and MS Office remain in use. I already provided a source from June 2025, so quite recent.
Politician B halts the migration
You clamed there was no Microsoft migration. You claimed that any sort of Migrosoft migration is garbage misinformation. You’re a blatant liar.
You first

No. Just calling out your double standard. If you didn’t provide sources for your statements, then it’s rich for you to demand sources from me.
