Only shills and office drudges use Windows anyway, and a few gaymers still. None are skilled with computers and resent having to 'learn' a new OS even if every function is nearly identical.

How is it spyware?

Been running mint on my two computers since January a while there have been some hickups the lack of bloatware, spyware and other bs. has been well worth it. Also every time you fix some issue at least you know it will stay fixed versus windows fucking you over with some new cancer next update.

Are there any time-respecting Linux distros that AREN'T spyware? Keep in mind very few people outside of /g/ are going to bother setting up Arch or Gentoo.

Giving your data to the alphabet agencies is subjectively different than giving your data to a company that that sells it to all bidders.

CachyOS is Ark with everything you need preinstalled. People use it for gaming too, but it's still Ark and you can use as a daily driver, having a couple of gamkng drivers installed doesn't do any harm.

I bought a laptop and it wanted me to create a windows account. I wiped the drive and installed Ubuntu. For about a month it wouldn't make thumbnails, finally fixed itself, then it wouldn't update Brave until I had to open up a prompt and type shit in.

Most of these aren't true but this one is especially not true. there is no such feature.

recall, last I heard, was an opt-in "feature". But it's very real.

Ubuntu desktop, opensuse, and fedora. Any gui besides gnome or kde is a meme. Rolling updates, rare updates, and forks of forks are a meme.

The thumbnail thing was an apparmor fuck up.

Windows is the one that actually put gay pride shit in the start menu though. I've never had any tranny shit in my OS as a linux user.

In the old days the "hardest" parts were autistically copying your HD's cyl/head configuration if you were going to dual-boot, and also setting up X where you'd have to find your monitor manual and look up modes or risk blowing you're CRT to pieces and blinding yourself.

Good luck with linux if disabling above is already too hard for you.

>>540276665
What exactly would you be doing with a computer in the middle of nowhere/under ground anyway? Anyway besides that, are you implying that it wouldn't function? And that under normal circumstances it uses a wireless signal to connect to some base, transmit and receive data without you needing to pay your phone bill?

The reason I use windows is because it allows me to use the programs and services I need.

Some games aren't available on Linux or I have to waste an entire afternoon to set it up. Also there is something that always breaks with Linux, each week a nuisance, death by a thousand cuts. Didn't they just fix the adobe bs not working on Linux? After years and years of problems with adobe?

Until you don't understand this, people will continue to ignore Linux.

Linux is kiked too

I miss when most imagboard users were tech-savvy, educated white kids in their 20s.
4chan of the 2000s and early 2010s was internet utopia compared to now.
