I was skeptical of software subscription model when Adobe went this path, though now prefer this route. It provides a constant revenue stream to software makers which allows them to introduce new features and bug fixes on a continuous basis. Without having to wait years until a new versions was available that you had to purchase all over again with a lifetime license. Microsoft is not going anywhere. There is no practical alternative in enterprise environments.
I've been using Microsoft 365, which includes Office 365, since 2018. I've not seen stability issues or bloatware mentioned, so would be interested in what these are?
The biggest issue with using outdated software though usable to an end user, is when security support ends for the product. It leaves your system vulnerable when connected to a network where outsiders can gain access. Just because you don't notice anything unusual does not mean you've not been hacked. Our IT office can work on a PC in the background without staff noticing anything unusual is going on.
