That’s where it’s heading. Because why would I use software I don’t trust at home? New entrepreneurs will be using Linux because it doesn’t sell their data.
Comment on Windows 11 could actually become the same kind of mistake Sony made with the PS3

Every once in a while, Microsoft makes fundamental mistakes which they only survive because of their size. Think Microsoft Bob or Windows 8. Looks like Windows 11 is heading in the same direction.

I still have the “Intel Celeron Inside” and “Ready for Windows Vista” stickers on my physical trash can at work.

Nobody sees it that way, nobody notices what we notice. They don’t know any alternatives, it has new features so it’s innovating, it does what they want/need. I hear no complaints, only from tech people who are invested in privacy and digital sovereignty. That’s the reality.

This is my impression also. Most people are just “Meh” about it since it’s not that noticeable. A bit more ads, bit more bandwidth use, bit more ram use and a bit slower CPU when performance of websites sucks ass is not that noticeable.

Maybe in the case of windows 11 that will be true, but in the past that has not been the case. When Windows 8 came out regular users were “upgrading” new machines to windows 7.

You’re massively overestimating the amount of people who even know what an operating system is, let alone change it.
