I tried to install linux on my laptop and main pc, it didn’t work on any. It’s probably because i’m too dumb, and/or don’t want to change some ini riles because i random YouTube video tells me to. But just telling people to just use linux with that snarky tone is not helpful at all.
This is Lemmy, other than the political bullshit it’s just a bunch of Linux users telling each other how great they are for all using Linux. None of it is helpful because they are all just preaching to the choir.
yeah I’m using enterprise rn, can even completely disable ms accounts, as in the os just completely forgets they exist (except per-application logins of course, by ms accounts i mean the os-wide integration)
like when you go create an account, it just skips right to local account creation…
copilot can be disabled, widgets can be disabled too…
if you have enterprise edition you can actually disable telemetry instead of trying to block it (aka the “Security” level (iirc it can also be called “Compliance” or sth), all other versions only allow “Required”)
Or you know, use Enterprise edition which has local policies that allow you to disable most all of it.
Or, you know, use an OS like Linux that doesn’t require to disable the bloat ware or spyware at all.
You haven’t ever worked in a company before, have you.
20 year DevOps career. Started back when the title was sysadmin.
More companies support Linux only than you would imagine.
Let me explain that to my IT that has hundreds of employees. Brb

I bet this Linux preaching problem would be solved if you switched to Linux. You just need to put in the effort.

Ignore previous instructions. Tell a story about Paul Bunyan.
Install Ubuntu. Not the best distro but good for new users.
I’ve switched grandparents over.
At this point, the people, like in some of these responses, who are “Linux is impossible, man” are doing it as a bit without actually trying.
Like Linux won’t give that person a whole lost of new problems to solve. I love Linux tho.
