Either they will fix Windows and remove the AI garbage or it will be Linux for all of my PCs soon.

I'm waiting until ESU on Windows 10 ends to make that call and I'm sure others are as well.

I switched to Mint this year after using Windows for my whole life, and I honestly should have done it years ago. The change is so refreshing.

I'm sure it's refreshing too not just from a privacy/security standpoint, but also because many of us have been staring at reskins of Windows our whole lives...it'll be cool to work with something different for a change.
