EDIT: I would report it to Apple as bug. Who knows if it's part of iOS or an app- the only way you could tell is if you start uninstalling your apps.

Fair enough, I respect that.

I don’t think that necessarily means your data will be deleted and not used to train their LLMs, though.

I downvoted it because the title makes almost no mention of what it’s actually about and reads like clickbait article title.

Out of genuine curiosity, what is it missing? I have to use macOS on my Apple Silicon computers, so I haven’t tried out Asahi.

I think you’re partially right, at least, based off my personal experiences.

My wife who despises Windows is primarily a macOS user, but she’s fine with using Linux, assuming I’ve setup anything “technical” beforehand.

However, I think complacency will continue to thrive for Windows-only users. I think there’s only a small vocal minority that is switching from Windows to Linux. Most of the people I work with continue to use and complain about Windows, but are too intimidated by Linux to switch. I think the average Joe doesn’t even know Linux exists.

I appreciate your well-thought response. I’ll give you my 2¢ and I want to preface what I’m about to say with the idea that this not a hill I’m willing to die on, it’s just my personal experience.

On the contrary, I have accidentally ran into a number of people online saying “I’m so happy with the performance of my Linux box” but less so for Windows, but that’s likely due to the communities I’m a part of. I also made my original comment with specific, stubborn people I know in real life, who hate Windows and refuse to do anything about it.

The time you’ve seemingly spent configuring Windows sounds like the same amount of time an average Linux user would spend to setup theirs. I also use Windows, macOS, and Linux daily and have all kinds of weird issues on all 3 of them, but for Windows, since everything is closed source, there’s often nothing I can do about those issues other than wait for an update and hope those issues are fixed. The same goes for macOS but the number of issues I have with it are very minimal in comparison. But at the end of the day, if this setup makes you happy, then I’m happy to hear it.

This would be a lot more accurate if Windows users weren’t constantly complaining about Windows.

Reminds me of some encounters I had when I used to play RuneScape.

"I don't think I've ever knowingly lied"

And this is how you immediately tell everybody you’re a liar.
