    I live in the UK and I wonder if the windows experience really is that different outside of the UK/Europe?

    I don’t have any intrusive ads or system instabilities that most of these posts complain about.

    Every time I reboot my Win 11 PC, Microsoft tries to get me to switch to Linux. (I don’t want their online backup and the forced advertisement for it on startup pisses me off.)

    I mean, I used to hate Microsoft way more when I was using Windows. Now I mostly do not care. Except when I have to open office365, then yes, I really hate Microsoft.

    I’d like to meet the person responsible of designing that webpage and present him some very sadic friend.

      This one is kind of tough. I’m forced to use Microslop at work (though I’ve been using GNU/Linux privately for over a decade)

      I thought that until I was downvoted a bit back for calling them “M$” in reply to someone’s post about how they don’t want to switch to 11. I can’t imagine where that’s coming from, but it was a good few accounts.

      I was told it came across as “unserious” and childish. I think it’s neither: I’m adamant that M$ is garbage and I’m quite serious about the advice I had given in my post to prioritize getting off of 10 before the hackers manage to find something worth exploiting.

      M$ managed to make hating on them uncool somehow. Boggles my mind.

      It wasn’t so bad back in the day. They used to care about customer experience back when not everyone had access to technology.

      Everyone hated windows since ever. Not like real hatred, just making fun out of it. That’s why it’s so weird and cultish to see Mac users so much in love with apple. It’s not healthy.
