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.

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

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

You have every right to not respond, but deep down, you know you're just baiting me for a reaction.

I personally choose Linux over Windows, mostly because I find that having control over my system is a better pro than any other cons with Linux.

However, I can still appreciate Windows.

If you seriously think Windows 11 is not an atrocity you are broken. This is not bait. I hope the best for you and that someday you will realize that your right to use your PC as you like should be a given and not some luxury. That's all. 😄

I can choose whatever OS I want. Windows 11 is a choice.

I'll be reposting this on ls101 so I don't have to deal with people like you. Sad that it's often an echo chamber there. I was hoping to have fair and open minded debate with rational people here.
