  • A Chrome extension called “Microsoft to Microslop” that renames Microsoft references in browsers as a protest against the company’s aggressive AI integration.
  • The extension reflects widespread user frustration with Microsoft’s Copilot AI, which faces extremely low adoption rates and growing privacy concerns among Windows users.
  • Many users actively seek ways to remove AI features from Windows, highlighting significant backlash against Microsoft’s AI strategy despite CEO dismissals of complaints.

That true, though most of the results for Linux Mint slow boot show people finding it anomalous and try to help fix it, where as with Bazzite, most of the comments say that's normal and they experience it too. The consensus I've seen suggests that Fedora Atomic boots slower than other distros, and thus Bazzite inherits that slow boot as well.

I'm not trying to suggest that Bazzite sucks or anything, it provides some very unique advantages such as the Deck mode, but at least in my experience, Fedora based immutable distros are slower on my hardware. If it's not on yours, then I'm glad to hear that, but it its been very repeatable on my end.

Yeah, I dunno, I've just never had that experience with it. Maybe it depends on hardware.
