im surprised anyone still uses windows... happy linux switcher for many years now, couldn't ever see myself going back to that trash, people that are okay with an operating system you purchased putting ads and popups in your face that you purchased and tracks every click you do are the same people that would go back to their girlfriend after she cheated on you for the 15th time in a row...

sorry if that sounds harsh, but it's my genuine opinion.

I agree with everything you said. I use it for one game and to intentionally have something that makes it appear I am being tracked. I even use Edge, Bing and ask it dumb questions. My goal is to make my masters and their future AI think I am boring and dim-witted which some here would probably just agree with.

Totally. Took a while to make the switch, but could never imagine going back. It's not like it'll get better.

No idea what the value proposition for the average home user these days.

That's true, but if you need to make programs for people using mostly windows you need a windows installation to make tests, otherwise you will distribute untested software

I thought most people used vms for this, especially on CI.

I can't imagine devoting so much effort to staying in the driver seat of the devices I own.

Im honestly surprised you felt comfortable claiming surprise that people use Windows. That's an incredible thing to feign, and it has to be feigned
