    “oh, just switch to Linux”

    Oh, just shut up already. On Linux my fingerprint reader doesn’t work, my Adobe apps doesn’t run, my Concepts app doesn’t run. Not everybody works in IT, and many of us actually run apps other than Office ones.

    This shit sucks, and I’ll support every tool that fixes and neuters Microsoft attacks to the user space because my work apps are there.

        I’m sure the smartphone you’re using right now is all under your control with no network access right? 🤦

        Seriously, what’s up with all those trolls on lemmy?

          It is rooted , uses LineageOS & doesn’t have google apps etc. Yes. Beyond that, I understand the risks of using always-online technology.
