Run W10Privacy and use NextDNS. Oh, and create a local user account.

And in Linux, you install the system, create an account.... and that's it

Im just gonna stick with windows 10. I only use it for gaming so idc about security updates.

edit: im not using windows at all anymore btw.

[-] GladiusB@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

I have it too, but I didn't duel boot with Linux Mint. I use the Mint more. I liked 10. But the graphics on Mint just looks better to me. Maybe because it doesn't hog resources like Windows.

Who won the duel? The boot or Mint?

Five Win 11 computers no ads, never had to do anything special except pretending I'm from Europe.

If Linux users consider that hard then they truly aren't that great with computers...

Well it's good to see that - unlike Lemmy - Reddit users have found a way to bash Windows without using pre-transition images of Elliot Page. So they've got that going for them, at least. (I'm assuming this post is also poking fun at Reddit, for being riddled with ads)

EDIT: Apologies, I shouldn't have made this comment. I'll leave it up, so the replies have some context.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that was only one user who made that comparison, and they got downvoted hard for that.

[-] andrew_s@piefed.social 7 points 2 years ago

It was two, fwiw. They were also upvoted, and engaged with (which is what the trolls want, of course). I shouldn't have made that comment - it's a sign that I've been on my phone too much this morning. I'll amend it, and then go out for a walk or something.

Well, yes, that transphobic post was very bad yesterday :( It was one person and the poster got a 30 days community ban on lemmy.world (check the modlog). The copy of the post was gone on lemmy.world but was still visible on lemmy.ml later, downvoted a lot.

The domain blacklist I was using was probably excessive then.

  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
