Step one -- install Linux
~~Step two -- install Firefox~~
Oh, I almost forgot that most Linux distos come with Firefox pre-installed!
How about providing actual help instead of jerking of to your favourite OS?
I get that the comment is almost surely circlejerk, but it is also honestly the only real answer to OP's question, isn't it? To switch OS?
So it's kind of hard to get mad at their comment when it's the only viable option. Is your problem with Linux or is it the fact that it brings you anxiety to know MS is in control of you? What if we substitute another OS for "Linux"? Does that make you feel any better?
I'm honestly not trying to be a jerk; these are honest questions. That's probably saying more than for OP, though; they, of course, knew the answer before they asked.
