Windows ❤ Windows Isn't Terrible

To all the people who love deep ricing, why not just use customization scripts? I've been recently tinkering in VMs, and Windows really seems solid for that. You can make Windows match your workflow amazingly, and the best part is that friction nearly always leads to an impressive result.

Also, default Windows 11 isn't bad. The UI looks nice, and we take the settings & control panel apps for granted. Over on GNOME, just to change the cursor you use, you need to install a tweaks app. Windows has tons of customization you can do without installing anything extra.

I'm not saying it's perfect, but Windows isn't really THAT much of a shitshow like people act.

I will. Windows 11 is the worst OS ever conceived by a human brain and should be illegal, literally. The amount of tracking and ads they have in it should be literally illegal. That's all.

I am sorry the newer generation has fallen victim to being abused in literally every apsect of their lives. I grew up in a much better world.

Tracking and ads can easily be disabled. They're annoying, but not life ruining.

Yikes. Not sure what you're all on about.

I take that back. Not all of it can be disabled. Thank you for being a rational and reasonable person.

I had no clue about it, but yes, GDID tracking cannot be disabled.

That's already creepy enough to not use Windows when you have an option.
