Me! Switched to fedora from Windows about 3 years ago and don’t regret it one bit. Probably the best decision I’ve made in regards to personal computing in my adult life.
Comment on Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot.

If you switched 3 years ago, you haven’t been converted in this very thread.

Did Lemmy even exist 3 years ago? I thought the Lemmy migration was only last summer.

I did switch around a month ago due to a thread similar to this, and I have booted windows like twice since then, and im really glad I made the switch. So, yes, threads like this did help me, while also providing good starting tips.

Even if it’s only one, I will have helped one person, unlike you who has only been bitching and moaning.

This may sound strange to you, but I don’t give a single fuck about how you perceive things.

I keep seeing this, and yes, it’s running the image of the Linux community. Even for me who’s part of it.
“Help, Windows problem.”
“Linux is the answer.”
“But I want to use Windows.”
“Then you’re a stupid ingrate who’s below me and deserve nothing good in your life.”
Do you hear yourselves? I’m exaggerating, but come on guys. You’re better than this, good grief.
