    Can you imagine installing Windows and having to install 10 seperate programs just to fix all the issues with it?

    It’s good that these tools exist, but it’s so frustrating that it’s a constant cat and mouse game of Microsoft trying to make their products as cumbersome and shit as possible and the community trying to salvage Windows to the best of their ability.

    At what point do OEMs just say actually nah, I’m tired of you making our laptops frustrating to use?

    At what point do they say fuck it I’m going the Valve route and moving away from a company that wants to undermine my products and my brand?

      It’s not just Microsoft. Never heard of always on DRM? Or government making it difficult for people to receive assistance (disability or homeless)?

      LTT put out an (surprisingly insightful) video about ChromeOS and how it’s kind of secretly spreading Linux. I don’t think its crazy to say that in 5-10 years ChromeOS or similar will be the default and Windows will be a premium add on or something.
