I know that this is a Linux community, but this is a good version of Windows if you have to use it: https://massgrave.dev/windows_ltsc_links
Not compliant with Microsoft TOS
I personally would stick with something activity supported and official.
Well screw Microsoft.
Don’t use Windows then
I use it only for Fusion >!(Fuck Autodesk for this)!<.
Recall is not mandatory after all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gBqIUkmVel8
Recall and the new file explorer share a dependency, except the file explorer doesn’t mark it as a dependency, so when Recall is removed, it is removed as well. Good job, Microsoft.
Ahh the beautiful wonders of Agile software development.
Nobody thinks more about Windows than Linux users.
Mostly because Linux doesn’t get in my way and I don’t need to think about it.
Completely reasonably. Half of us are on here specifically to avoid Windows after all
You avoid Windows by thinking about it all the time?
They are a lot more likely to think about Windows, as they actively decided to avoid using it by moving to Linux. That is in stark contrast to the subset of Windows users that would never give it a second thought, as they are unaware of what an operating system even is, nevermind having an overview of which ones exist and what their respective advantages may be.
Most issues stand, and fuck Windows generally, but honestly I don’t quite understand the issue with dropping support for older versions of Windows. Linux distros also do this, so much software does this, it’s just not practical or reasonable to manage all your versions of your software forever.
I don’t think the issue is dropping support, but the ridiculous requirements to upgrade to Win11, plus the fact that more recent Windows have serious enshittification that means users don’t want to upgrade in the first place.
The bottom of the meme is explicitly calling it out. Those issues are valid, but there’s this shift in blame to the concept of support cycles in general.
I don’t think the bottom of the meme suggests that dropping support for old versions is inherently bad. It’s part of a larger image; in combination with the other screenshots it suggests people being forced to have Recall/other Win11 enshittification.
time to expand my blocklist!
They are so good at advertising Linux that they have 73% of desktop market share while linux has less than 5% according to statcounter
🤯🤯
Sure, but it’s up from just a couple of years ago when Linux was sub 2%, and was hovering around only 1.5% in, say, 2020.
