Reminder of the following:

1. Google will merge ChromeOS and Android to form a FOSS Linux-based desktop OS that will be 100% free to download and use.

https://www.androidauthority.com/aluminium-os-android-for-pcs-3619092/

2. Windows will be severely affected by this new, totally free competitor and will bleed marketshare.

3. All existing Linux desktop environments will be totally outclassed by Google's top secret desktop UI and underlying OS. Even Linux users will give up on shit like Mint and just use Google's desktop for their daily driver OS.

2026 will finally be the year of the Linux desktop, and it will be because Google will do to desktops what they did to phones.

You know it's coming. Don't act like this was a surprise.

But even on that point I can't agree with you, MacOS sure, even Gnome (and Pantheon the elementary DE) is arguably better, but not Windows.
Consider that KDE's budget is something like 500 000 EUR, it's impressive what they can do considering that.

I don't care about budget. I care about the product itself. Windows more polished. Macs pointer is the same by the way. It's optically compensated just like with letters in fonts

Why aren't you downloading all the software/tools for anything you could ever want to do offline on your OS since 2010?

Download sites for obscure tools and utilities go down every year, accelerated since the last 5. Software support cycles are the fire in which we burn.

Fake people with AI generated content you can follow for whatever fucking reason they think anyone would do that.

Your own personal AI with its own custom personality that you can take with you wherever you go with no internet needed. They help with homework and school work, remind you of various things like appointments, check your email, stop and fix viruses, physically fix broken software as they can analyze code in real time like any programmer would with the right debugging tools, they both manage your security and are your security, works for you. When people hire you, they're hiring you for your properly trained AI as there's limits to what your AI can known or learn.

Their world gets even deeper the more you think on it. Grade school is also for training their personal AI so I'm guessing there's some kind of degree to what their AI can learn or be trained in. They're constantly ringing in on you like a real person so there no need to reply to them in order to get them to speak. They have normal conversations not just with the user but other people and AI's as well.

Portable little AI slaves really.

If Win11 would just pack all of the UI settings into a compact win32 styled menu it would go a long way to making it more discoverable and easy to use. Of course customization is much more limited now.
