    They always knew, they just didn’t care.

      Im running Windows 11 on my new laptop. Every major update it’s like:

      • PLZ LET EDGE BE UR BROWSER
      • BRO PLZ, OFFICE SUBSCRIPTION
      • LOCATION?
      • Let me just install tiktok and FB apps.

      My laptop officially supports Ubuntu, think I might make the switch full time. I don’t game on my laptop and most of it’s use is browser, plex and emails…

        First off love the way you described them. Secondly, it reminds me of how microsoft keeps trying to charge my empty fake credit card I use for Xbox game pass. (You need to put a credit card to get any free month so I use a dummy). I get an email when they charge it literally twice a week like PLEASE JUST A SCRAP OF MONEY

      Or they thought forcing them on you made them money and care about nothing else. Now they’ve realized it’s a net negative.

        They will just be replaced with something else that you can’t remove.
