Comment on Just a JSON file in Windows 11 enables Edge, Bing, and Search ads removal
kool_newt@lemm.ee 6 months agoI feel the same way when I am forced to use Windows, it feels so primitive and in-the-way but I guess people get used to what they use.

I didn’t say Linux was good and Windows was bad. I was commenting on how one gets used to what they use regardless of what it is and implying that this effect might be the cause of their negative feelings rather than their implicit claim of Linux being a decade behind.
But just for an example or two, I like privacy, I like options, I don’t like ads, I don’t like MS coercing me to update to their newest, most restrictive, least private, most profitable OS version. I don’t like them coercing me to use their browser. I don’t like the feeling I get using software from a company known for anti-competitive behavior. A bunch more stuff like that really.
But tbh, I don’t have many Windows usage gripes as I’ve been able to avoid it most of my life. Why put up with all the other issues to use something that might be better in some cases unless forced to.
