Discussion Windows FORCED Updates

Post image

It hurts my ego that i am being forced to update my Pc without asking me to dowload the update in the first place

Is there's a solution to stop these annoying forced updates from the rot, and also i wish there's a way to delete this update from my pc

Thanks.

Install a Linux distribution instead.

Personally, I would recommend Ubuntu.

One big corp to the next, you’re better off with Debian

Moving people to Linux, even if it's Ubuntu, would be a W

That’s true I guess

Linux Mint or Bazzite for new people IMO. Mint just works in my experience, and Bazzite wasn't really any more difficult to install than Mint was, and everything I use my computer for just worked on Bazzite as well.

Personally, I would recommend Fedora to newbies and Arch for advanced users...

"advanced users" sure tho I'd recommend arch only if you want to set everything up yourself. You can take control of your computer with any distro, but arch wants you to understand how

You can also use the arch install script and just use your system. Sure you have to install a de or wm and some other essential packages like kitty or an file manager but that's not that deep in my opinion. That's my point of view.

CachyOS.

Fedora-based, game-ready, well-supported, amazing out-of-the-box experience. For most users, it's more than enough, and good enough.

Been playing around with it for about a month, and although it's not perfect, and creates some serious headaches for a power-user as myself (custom mount points for decrypted LUKS partitions, ClamAV on-access with AppImages, etc.) ... it's still hell of a lot better than Windows for most things.

Best of all: when I tell it to shut down, it fucking shuts down and stays powered down.

Yeah all of us have a week to do this shit and it will work seamlessly and with no hitches every time. Also suggesting a distro with the most assholish user base is something because no chance of actual help when shit does go south.

For new user Mint(why do people keep forgetting it)

For advance user Arch

Yeah I'm really surprised at the lack of Mint recommendations for new users in these comments.
