I moved back to linux (fedora) a while ago, what a relief and what a joy it is compared to Windows.

I use Firefox with duckduckgo search engine, no pages full of ad results like with google nowadays. I cannot think of 1 single reason to install Windows 10 and use Chrome browser, you just bite yourself with that choice.

The primary reason I boot into Windows is to play videogames, especially VR, which just isn't stable on Linux yet. But that's not a bad compromise either; my Windows boot is for companies that are happy to sneak rootkits onto the OS to detect cheaters, and honestly I'm totally okay declaring my Windows partition unsafe, and booting back to a sane OS to do real work.

It's really a shame, because the core OS underneath Windows 10 is fairly solid. It's specifically the user interface and Microsoft's behavior around telemetry and advertising their own products at the expense of the end user that turns me off Windows as a platform. Like, I feel like if they focused on making Windows a solid and boring OS that was so stable and reliable that no other choice made sense, their overall brand image would improve so much. Experiment elsewhere, the OS is not the place to tarnish your users' good will.
