This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
This needs to happen with Appl too. AppleTV/Safari/Messages/etc app for MacOS + SIP my ass. Its not integral and if you've made it so you need to unmake it so, along with other bundled crap. SIP should literally refer to that and only that in aggregate which is necessary to ensure the system is able to function, not per se function in an un-overruleable way for the maker.
Wait Windows users are allowed to manage their software ?!? Get out of town.
You can remove Windows completely from your life with very little effort, no matter where you live and it's free! In the world of today there is no need whatsoever for that exploitive and in short bad OS anymore.
This comment is so out of touch.
I work in CAD and 3D printing and I'd be completely dead in the water if I used Linux.
No fusion 360, no cura
I bet there are plenty of other apps that I rely on that are not available on Linux.
I'm not some sort of Windows fanboy either. I'm disgusted with their action in the recent years.
I run Linux on my home server, but not my main computing machine
Let's be realistic here, your experience is not universal
To be fair, PrusaSlicer and its derivatives do have native Linux support. And you can use Onshape from the browser on Linux just fine and it is honestly really good. I do a lot of this stuff too
unless you want your programs to run
I mean some stuff is still running windows 98. What programs are you really needing to run?
Same ol Adobe and Microsoft products
God I love people that pretend switching to Linux is for everyone. They’re the same dipshits that install Mint on their grandmothers machine without asking, then get defensive when she takes issue with it.
Agreed, I hate how people blindly use Windows because "that's what my shitty HP laptop shipped with"
Way too late...I switched away from Windows 100% already. Linux works perfectly fine.
Does this also impact Apple, will they also need to allow removing Safari? If yes, is it possible that they might allow removing other things like iMessage and Apple TV?
Or just use Bulk Crap Uninstaller
If even MS themselves calls it "benefits", why not enable it for all by default?
Because fuck you.
Why is this a topic at all? Don't you own your machine?
I'm surprised I own my shoes at this point. Any tech bros wanna take care of that with an app?
C'mon bro, its nowhere near that facile although I'll concede that once people are more aware of the options, it might help get things going in the right direction. Bes positive and joyfully share you expertise ;)
I give it less than a year before this goes the way of the Windows 10 start menu registry tweak.
Can you just do right click uninstall? or do you have to follow a 12 step hacker method that would cause updates to stop working until you reinstall windows again?
Windows has become the most bloated ad-infested spyware os in existance and more people are leaving it more than ever before. In just few more years, it will be a thing of the past
