      No, but others, f.Exmpl. there are some profesional apps which are only for Windows, best is to have both in dual boot. No OS is perfect for anything or anyone. On the other hand, no OS has nearly the among of FOSS and other soft as Windows has, because it’s the most used OS and for this reasons the most devs and compañies creating apps for it.

      Actually already fined in the EU - the past practice around exactly browsers is what happened in the EU for Microsoft before…

    In my work some windows policy always switches the default browser back to edge. I had to write a script that swaps it back to Firefox on each boot :D

    The final straw for me was when Windows started to ignore the default browser setting and open some links in Edge exclusively. Someone made a program to fix that, but Windows updates broke it to the point that the developer gave up on it.

    Yes, but for only those who do not know how to remove these bad habits from Windows. In Windows almost anything can be configured, the only problem is that Microsoft naturally does not, or only poorly documents how to do it and many configurations that do not interest them are very hidden.

        Of course, with this they calculate, also that 90% of users use the Edge, because they don’t even bother to look through another browser to post on Facebook or Instagram or search with Google or Bing. They don’t even know how to activate GodMode in Windows, to be able to access more than 200 different configurations, they just need the normal control panel to place another Wallpaper. I am an old retiree and sometimes the ignorance of some young people scares me, although normally one thinks that today’s young people know better the things of computing, but it is not like that.

      • What about the system processes in the event scheduler?

      • What about the window manager?

        This naturally has to be watched, because Windows sometimes resets some settings with the updates, but usually there are no problems. At least, until now I haven’t had any problems and less than the ones that the subject of this thread shows.

    The reason why Valve continues to push Linux heavily.
