Microsoft is ruining Windows. It just keeps getting worse. Whether it be their insistence on AI and cloud garbage, or just a general sense of incompetence, I can’t help but feel like the operating system has seen better days.

Normally I wouldn’t care too much, big tech ruins another thing, whatever.

But the problem is Microsoft has such a dominant market share that you can’t really escape them.

I guess unless you use a Mac or something I don’t know.

    It’s almost easier to install than Windows at this point

    Give an average user a PC with no OS. Ask them to install Windows. They can Google/use a pendrive on a secondary PC. I’d like to see how easy Windows 11 is to install.

      And that raises a good point, since average users get their tech friends to do the installing anyway. I’ve switched many over to Linux because of this.

        Close but no cigar.

        While some people do take their tech-friend’s help, majority of people just buy PCs/laptops with Windows preinstalled. THAT is the reason people are just used to Windows.

          That doesn’t preclude what I said, though. When there is installing to be done, it’s usually the tech friend that’s called in to do it. I know this by virtue of being that person and having been called on to do it several times.

          or even pay extra to install it, if the machine would have FreeDOS by default.
