    Thankfully I only have to use Windows to play video games. It would be terrible having to use it everyday for work.

      I am dreading the upcoming Windows 11 upgrades at my work. They made everything so fucking hard for me to get into to troubleshoot issues for our users.

        Man windows sounds complicated. All these scripts and programs you’ve gotta hunt the web for, opening the command prompt or doing a load of registry edits to not see ads everywhere.

            That’s absolutely untrue. The debloat tools have a GUI and presets where it’s basically a single click to run them.

            I seriously tried gaming on Linux with like 5 different distros, and it was a struggle to get things running not completely awfully. Windows doesn’t have those issues.

            I’ve been a hardcore Linux gamer for 15+ years, but there’s some games that just don’t work on Linux, unfortunately. Sim racing was something I wanted to get into so I could get familiarity with some tracks before I actually go drive them, so putting up with windows long enough to launch the games is something I can deal with.

            If M$ starts sending me ads mid game, then I might start looking for other solutions.
