One more reason to switch to Linux

People who are modifying Windows this deeply are not going to switch to Linux

Yeah. Not just to avoid a quick file rename.

Although, I started out as someone who modified Windows that deeply, and I ended up on Linux.

One of my reasons for switching was when my favorite Windows mod stopped working, and there was no recourse.

This sounds like it goes beyond that and the Windows team is actively pushing modders out?

I think this will have an effect, and we will get more migrations.

I switched when a Windows update for the third time in a month forcibly changed the default pdf and html file association to edge.

That was like 5 years ago, and I've never looked back.
