Put a crapton of ads, spyware, bloat, borderline malware embedded in the OS
Push people to Linux
More people who didn't know about FOSS learn about it and appreciate it
Make more people realize that capitalists are not needed for production and innovation
Empower class consciousness in the working class
Critical support to Microsoft for taking a stinking hot dump on their own product
Honestly Microsoft could shoot someone in 5th avenue
and people will still use Windows, there are too many videos and posts of people groveling at their feet for their mega corporation to stop harming them (nice little capitalist realism moment) and I won't believe it until I see Linux reach over 10% market share.
I'm sure that at some point staying on Windows 10 will no longer be an option for me. That will be the point at which I switch over to Linux.
Last update for 10 is in Oct 2025 iirc, and we can guess that they'll try to make it make it painful after that
The day Microsoft kills Win 10 is the day I stop having Windows on my computer.
Yeah. It'll no shit take me 3-5 months to switch my home systems over and I'm gonna lose so fucking much functionality and probably a lot of data too. But I'll need to.
Honestly if it wasn't for how shitty sound codecs setup for Linux is and someone found a way to make windows-style file structures work even as a fake frontend I'd have switched already.
Windows 7... FOR-EVAH!!!
