The carrot of “new features” and the stick of “no more updates for your old PC.”…

This is the year i finally dump windows. I already have started testing Linux Mint and it seems to work just fine. Hopefully enough games workbon it that I don't have to use Windows again.

I could excuse most of win10, but the "feature" in 11 where they take a picture of my screen every min and send it to Microsoft... No thanks! Fuck that!

Ending security updates for an OS that just came out a few years ago is also a scummy way to make people upgrade, they literally have to give people viruses to make them do an unnecessary upgrade, it's really slimy and gross.

Bye Windows, I haven't liked you since win7 :'c

They claim that Recall doesn't currently send copies to MSFT, but yeah I hear ya. This is the year I go back to Linux.
