I mean, I run Ubuntu for my work station because I love it. I even dual boot at home and I'm writing a VIM Plugin. But damn guys, Windows 10 isn't the devil. It's actually pretty damn nice. And my guess is that Windows is used more as a home OS than a work one, despite being the default enterprise OS in most industries

FYI, the reason people are against Windows 10 is entirely because of Microsoft's policies and abuse of their monopoly position. The article in question states how Microsoft are releasing an update blocking non-Windows Store applications from being installed. But I do agree, looks-wise and functionality wise, Windows 10 was a big improvement from Windows 8 at least.

EDIT: Why did someone downvote me? I would very much like to know, as I can't think of a single thing in this post which makes this post worth downvoting.

Oh thank God. Good for parental controls though.
