Microsoft is ruining Windows. It just keeps getting worse. Whether it be their insistence on AI and cloud garbage, or just a general sense of incompetence, I can’t help but feel like the operating system has seen better days.
Normally I wouldn’t care too much, big tech ruins another thing, whatever.
But the problem is Microsoft has such a dominant market share that you can’t really escape them.
I guess unless you use a Mac or something I don’t know.

Yeah I am so glad I switched to GNU/Linux years ago, Have to keep supporting closed OSes at work with our software and with each release they are just getting worse and worse, while GNU/Linux just keeps getting better.
Install Linux I have using it on servers and desktop for years, you can start with Pop! OS. Good luck.
Pop! OS is great. I’ve been using it for about a week now. Very friendly distro for us Windows victims.
Zorin OS it’s another good one for recent ex-windows users, but yeah pop os goes smooth.
Here’s my vote for Bazzite. If your use case is simple computing and games? I don’t know if you can do much better.
18 minutes video about how windows is bad, posted to literally the biggest linux circlejerk forum of the interwebs. Oh a misleading ad trying to sell the same thing as haveibeenpwned, classic.
Nowadays if someone is annoyed by these things can switch to Linux, nearly all games work ootb, hardware acceleration and drm is also working in browsers. For a home user, competitive gaming is the only thing which is not on par with windows.
For company environments where they use software which is windows only, group policy is there, sysadmins can lock down computers that it basically looks like a kiosk with only the few programs the employee need, no notifications, no ai bullshit, these annoyances only affect home users.
Oh, you absolutely can escape them. I hacent used windows except for work in years and even then my boss is okay with ne using linux as long as i get the work done
no king rules forever, my son
Install Linux. It’s almost easier to install than Windows at this point.

You are like 10 years late to discover this, but sure… Of course you can escape Microsoft. They are very easy to avoid.
Linux is amazing. Just a hint…
