For good reason, made the switch around the same time joining lemmy and haven’t looked back.
prep a live usb and try a few different window managers on whatever distro you align with, (hearing lime is easiest for beginners) youl know when you arrived home.
This is such an own goal it’s almost a meme at this point.
You know why Linux doesn’t have this shit? Because it hasn’t attracted the ire of the marketing team. Do you know why that is? Because the fraction of target users using Linux is TINY. It’s not worth the expensive engineering effort, especially when you consider the demographic using Linux is unlikely to fall for this shit.
The more you win the “use linux” argument, the more the argument won’t make sense. The day Linux gets enough user share to justify it, is the day all this shit starts happening on Linux.
Also it’s much easier to disable on Linux and not every distro uses the same program to start apps on boot so most annoying programmes can’t find it. Discord (which I would ideally move away from if my friends didn’t use it) certainly thinks it’s enabled on startup somehow.
Windows seems to start some startup apps before you log in also worries me as that means malware could start before you are able to remove it and I don’t know how to reach tty mode before reaching a gui so yeah…
USE LINUX
Jesus fuck…
Lol it’s everywhere here

For me that was here
That was not even the longest winded “I use Arch btw.”
If you hate learning useful life skills, don’t use Linux! I use Arch BTW. 😉
Nice dots!
Yeah I also switched because of here and longtime frustration with windows.
c’mon man knock it off
signed, a fellow linux user
You’ve gotta let FrankTheHealer shout from the rooftops. He has windows to heal
WE HEARD YOU.
Nope

They hated him because he spoke the truth
Gnutard
He didn’t even /anything with his Linux. I think that charge is incorrect
How about no
