The whole schtick is you have actual ownership and control of your software. You literally just have a Windows license and in that license you have no power or control over your OS. Microsoft is definitely spying on you at this point, no question about that anymore.
I am sensing some serious anti-linux projections. If you don't like it, don't use it. If you don't like people talking about it, don't use Lemmy and go to Reddit where there are tons of Windows bros who dunk on Linux all day.
Point is: Your full of it and you probably want to ruin Lemmy like Reddit got ruined so you can feel comfortable in your chosen OS. Follow the granny rule, if you don't have something positive to say just shut the fuck up.
I think you're confusing Lemmy's alignment to freedom and the common good with a circle jerk. Most of us are here because we don't want to be bound by the limits of centralized, proprietary social networks, how can you be surprised that the people here try to make the same choice in other aspects of their lives?
