I can’t believe a paid OS needs a tool like this. Here’s a GUI tool called OFGB (Oh Frick Go Back) to remove all the ads in Windows 11. It’s understandable if a free OS or app needs ad support, but this is just crazy github.com/xM4ddy/OFGB

    If only they knew how badly recived ads are inside of a free OS and how careful KDE’s devs had to be to ask for donations once a year in a permanently dismissable standard system notification.

      It boggles my mind how many Windows users refuse to switch to something else and insist on patching together Microsoft’s intentionally broken excuse of an operating system…

        The usual, I would but games (and proprietary software for work)

        I run a Linux machine literally next to my Windows desktop and yeah it’s 98% for my daily usually but that’s still a week worth of “Not working” for my year.

        Fallout 3 was hard enough to get working on Windows many moons ago but even with all the “Use Lutris” or “Use Heroic” cries, it’d be easier to run a whole Windows VM than to get it running natively and in the forty minutes of time I have to game, I’d rather just play the game sometimes.

        So, if I have to play in their Sandbox, I’m gonna shit in it first so they don’t try to come play too.

        Plus, VR and all that.

    I haven’t paid for windows since like 2014. The fuck are you guys doing that you haven’t gotten a free legitimate license?
