I stopped using it as soon as I ordered a takeout of my data and saw they saved my unfinished searches even after I deleted them

whenever someone comes to me asking for help on windows, I first tell them straightway that windows is shit, and I know nothing about it. then I spend half an hour searching for answers to resolve the problem, only to curse it again and give up, before telling then again to use a better operating system(i.e., GNU/Linux).

yes, I don’t want to be get “skilled” in a proprietary disservice.
and no, distributions like Debian GNU/Linux, or arch has far better documentation. the quality of documentation also matters. they may not have 100 different “run sfc scannow” websites, but they will have almost any problem you can find on good forums.

yeah, my machines have been windows-free for almost a decade, and in the development field, I rarely see it. So, it’s alien and disorienting to me.
but even then my experience with windows has been less than optimal. I had to install many good services like henrypp’s simplewall just to stop windows from phoning home. not to mention removing other bloat.

with GNU/Linux, I know my machine will do nothing like that without my explicit permission.

Debian's Dilemma (sh.itjust.works)

[Image description: A fox-woman wearing a dress the color of the Debian logo is being pulled by the sleeves on one side by a gnu man and on the other side bu a penguin. She has an annoyed expression. The gnu man says: “Debian, why do you offer a non-free firmware repo? You’re so close to being one of the few fully free...

I like this meme. it captures my thoughts about it as well. on the one hand, I don’t want non free firmware blob in my machine(which I don’t have :)), and on the other, it took me hours to get the right firmware on a relative’s laptop.
I personally would’ve liked a separate media with nonfree firmware blobs, but the voting on the matter rejected that idea.

that’s one of the reasons why I disagree with people dunking on zuckerberg. they almost always make fun of his appearance.

it’s the ideas that matter, not the appearance.

crashes every damn time. requires logs out every 15 days, takes too to load chats. many actions only appear when you hover over there message(no indication otherwise).
telegram on the other hand is quite fast.
but yeah, most of these points are bad ux and not ui
