    Or, you know, use an OS like Linux that doesn’t require to disable the bloat ware or spyware at all.

      I tried to install linux on my laptop and main pc, it didn’t work on any. It’s probably because i’m too dumb, and/or don’t want to change some ini riles because i random YouTube video tells me to. But just telling people to just use linux with that snarky tone is not helpful at all.

        Install Ubuntu. Not the best distro but good for new users.

        I’ve switched grandparents over.

        At this point, the people, like in some of these responses, who are “Linux is impossible, man” are doing it as a bit without actually trying.

        This is Lemmy, other than the political bullshit it’s just a bunch of Linux users telling each other how great they are for all using Linux. None of it is helpful because they are all just preaching to the choir.

        Like Linux won’t give that person a whole lost of new problems to solve. I love Linux tho.

        20 year DevOps career. Started back when the title was sysadmin.

        More companies support Linux only than you would imagine.
