JFC people have a hard on for Linux here. Every single article about Microsoft has this comment. We get it, Linux good.. Windows bad.

Well, unlike on Windows, on Linux you don't get prompts that look like malware begging you to please use some creepy cloud services.

99.99% of what you need on Windows works well on Linux, and without all the upsells and ads.

The sooner there is an exodus from windows the sooner MS asks "why?".

But you don't get it because you still use windows.

[-] Kbobabob@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

I use both. Most things in the space i work in still need Windows. Please don't assume what i do or do not know.

I know it's repetitive, but (some) people still don't seem to hear it. Everyone complains about windows doing a million annoying things, but so few actually consider an alternative. Some people need to be reminded that they don't need to wait for Microsoft to fix their problems. Admittedly, I doubt very many of those are in this community, or on this platform though.

Will YOU be the one to convince the old CTO fart in this giant multinational corporation?
