Microsoft in their infinite wisdom has replaced the Hide Desktop icon with Copilot.

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
People be like:
tbf I get it. Sometimes you just want to be mad.
But like, it's Microsoft's fault.
Or Adobe, Autodesk, Nvidia, etc.
"Hey I have a problem with my Samsung"
"Drop it and get an iPhone instead"
This is what you guys are like.
When people tell you to use Linux, they're not telling you that to solve your immediate problem (e.g. your "show desktop" icon has been replaced with a different icon), but they are telling you to get out of your abusive relationship with Microsoft, because that is the real problem: Microsoft does not respect you, the end-user of their product, and this kind of abusive shit will keep happening for as long as you keep using Windows.
More like:
“Hey I have a problem with my Samsung”
"Here's a custom ROM you can install instead" (but also glosses over a lot of the finer decisions that go into whether or not to choose to run a custom ROM)
you don't have to pay for a +1000$ device to switch to Linux. In most cases, you can just install it in the same machine you have Windows.
It's more like replacing Samsung's Android ROM with a custom ROM. Sure, you'll have to learn new things to use it, but you don't have to buy an iPhone.
Nah, I switched to Linux last year and it cost me $0. No new hardware needed. So not a good metaphor.
It does sometimes feel like a guy with face scars from an exploded Samsung reaching for another Samsung while saying "I hope they've made improvements"
