What is so precious on Windows that you cannot do on Linux?
Sell my telemetry to the highest bidder? Give me ads in my desktop? Force AI into every request i make? Capture images of everything I do and store them against my wishes so that malware can come in and access that? You want to be the target of practically every worm/virus/botnet out there? You want what is demonstrably the worst history of security for any desktop OS with one of the most bypassed antivirus systems in existence?
What you’re giving up with Windows are a few handfulls of games with kernel-level anti-cheat that already fail to keep people from cheating. You want to play Roblox right? It’s FULL of players, you must! Fortnight? Super important titles.
Of course then you have things like Outlook that are already being replaced by Electron apps that exactly the same on linux in a browser.
So yes, I agree that for 99.9% of people, dual booting is a waste of disk space.
Right,
The only people concerned about Telemetry are conspiracy theorists. The other 80% of people don’t care, and a good amount of them understand that it’s used for improving software.
What Linux advocates call ads are introductions to features and things that would benefit them, and they’re far easier to turn off than switching OSes.
Many of us have been using Windows without ever encountering a virus. -I went out of my way to get one so I could test my skills on it (only time and I’m 55).
There are far more than just ‘kernel level AC games’. We’ve seen this propaganda for years while Proton keeps realease new compatibility updates. Also, even your Linux loving LTT called ProtonDB a what? Only recently did WINE (not Proton) fix the frame timing issue that made some games unbeatable mid-game (far worse than not working).
Most people aren’t bothering with an email client these days.
Turn that on its head.
