True.

The only thing the average consumer will even notice is the end of support for Windows 10. However, once the prompt to upgrade to Windows 11 appears, 99% will click "yes" and forget about it. They might be a little annoyed by the changes, but that will be all.

Add Norton to that list. They also perform their own MITM attack on your pc to ensure your certificates are "safe"...

As a Linux user myself, I understand what you are saying. Every distribution has its advantages and disadvantages, and you can't expect regular people to know which one is best for them. Saying it's not confusing to the average consumer is disingenuous.

Having said that, if you want to make the switch, go for Linux Mint and be happy. In my opinion, it's the easiest Linux distribution by far, and everything just works.

And mainly in third world countries, like the US.

Yes, but the new evidence points to it as well!

Yeah you're probably right. I should have probably diverted from the original topic halfway through. 😅

"Let me tell you, folks, it’s so true. Just like Putin, right? It’s unbelievable. We start with 3, then we go to 4, and then 5. It's all about strength, and nobody knows strength like me. We're talking about a progression, a strategy. Just like Putin does, so smart. You have to move step by step, building power. That’s how you win, that’s how you get things done. Trust me, it works."

Trump in one of his rallies (probably)

Maybe not here, but on other bigger social media sites it was definitely the narrative.

I was in the same boat as you a year ago, but Windows got so bad that I just accepted that I could only play 90% of the games I want and had to check protondb before buying a game.

Also I wouldn't use a distro that has GNOME as their default DE. KDE is (currently) superior in many ways that matter for gamers.

I'm pretty sure everyone agrees that Trump is worse. But with headlines such as these a lot of people will unfortunately vote for Trump over Biden.

That is also the reason everything reset to the status quo at the end of every episode.
