I love watching Windows users complain about it, and continue using it.

I bought a new deivce last week wich came with Win11 home. There was no way to turn it on and see the desktop without getting online and loggin into an account first. So I removed that interface for accessing Microslop services and installed an OS in its place.

There are a lot of people who don't know that there are alternatives or are intimidated by them

It wasn't a sincere remark, more of a statement of frustration. People think Linux runs no "useful" applications and it's just a hobby of some nerds. My sincere and polite attempts at helping people haven't worked well, maybe I just suck at it I don't know.
