Those of you who still use windows for one reason or more, where do you draw the line about the shitty things microsoft is doing? By drawing the line I mean using some other operating system no matter how bothersome it might be.

Not judging or anything, i’m just curious where the general mindset is about it.

    Ironically you may be better off using linux on your current hardware than the new hardware, since driver supports tends to improve with time (the Linux community is known to support hardware long abandoned by the original manufacturers). Bleeding edge (release new) hardware has has less time for the community to work on it, so your experience may be more unstable.

      Then maybe Linux isn’t ever going to be useful to me, by the time 7000 series GPUs exist my 4090 laptop will probably be done and passed off to someone else.
