And mouse to top right for me. With windows is usually the users who screw up, the worst of the product itself is that it advertises at you

If Linux had the bulk of users we'd be seeing idiot things users installed on Mint

I'd like to mention that windows also wants your location, advertises in a paid product and you don't even know what data Microsoft is getting from you also they make it more difficult to use the product by running random apps you don't need like phone link or other qol apps that cause problems like edge literally opening with your Google chrome data if you uninstall it.

So instead companies would be limited to less powerful spyware but users would likely still install dumb stuff and give anything root permissions that asks for them.
