However, they still forget that working with their products is the worst pain in the arse.

Probably. But maybe it is my habit of unshitifying every OS I install. I always decline telemetry, ads and suspecious features since Win10 rolled out. Same on my android phones. Use adblock since I cannot stand seeing ad banners without freaking out.

My point is: Microsoft and Google always offer opting-out. Users are responsible for accepting or declining services like telemetry. If you still cry about this crap: FIX YOUR CONFIG.

I cannot relate to most of your points. I’ve never seen the ads you describe. UI made a huge leap forward after they neglected it for decades, so it almost caught up to the usual Linux DEs (as they were some years ago). System performance is not worse than on my several Linux systems.

Challenge accepted. Gonna apply to CERN next year 😎

That sounds boring af.

Just be at work and look around yourself. Many of your colleagues got their jobs without knowing what’s actually going on. Doesn’t matter what kind of job they have.

I hope the big G will pull the big N into court.

Yes, but users with basic knowledge don’t even get the difference between a web browser and a search engine. Shutting down Google seems like a perfect “simple” explanation for a general digital lockdown.

They know this is impossible - even with their worthless currency. I guess they will soon provide their own services or they will revoke internet access from their citizens.

The cube is so heavy, it presses a hole into the floor.

Will they pay cheap developers with vodka?

Artists embraced Adobe long enough. It’s time for a change.
