It runs like shit today. Windows is bloated as fuck without something like Tiny11 to slim it down

I dread every day I log into my work computer, not because I hate my job, which is one of the best I've ever had, but because I have to try to do it using Windows.

At least you aren’t having to manage your windows install. I feel for corporate IT departments having to figure out how to disable so much and still keep the OS running.

You and me. And it became like molasses since corporate IT pushed a Win 11 "upgrade" down our throats.

I'm scared from the possibility of linux going the same way... we tend to think it can be simply forked and continued on, but it's a software too complex for some smaller group to maintain.

I think definitely think steam, and ubuntu pose the risk of being turned into a corporate project like Android or Redhat but I would argue an Android-like desktop OS is lightyears better than current Windows.
