So the current situation in Windows ecosystem is that application developers spend time working on protecting users against their own operating system
-
As a sysadmin I do the same. Its like using alpha quality software.

Using DRM to pry privacy out of this clusterfuck is chef's kiss

Install Linux already, just get it over with, you'll be happy you did

Linux doesn't protect you from other people you're having conversations with.

Just ask Mike Waltz!

That's true, but nothing does. Once someone receives a message, you have no control over what they do with it (regardless of communication channel, encryption, etc.). I read the comment above more like "instead of jumping through hoops to get around the spyware in your operating system, use an operating system that does not come with built-in spyware instead".

This needs more comments of the same acknowledgement of just how hilariously shit is fucked up that app devs spend time working against an OS

According to Microsoftâs official developer documentation, setting the correct Digital Rights Management (DRM) flag on the application window will ensure that âcontent wonât show up in Recall or any other screenshot application.â
So I'm guessing that VLC will have a feature flag to enable or disable this setting. Then you play Disney movies that you pirated on loop. Let the lawyers sort it out.

it's scary to imagine that a naive one watching a pirated movie on VLC and MS Recall puts them in jail. Recall is shit, I am glad I moved to linux

Man, I really love Signal. Not only is it open source and they actually give a shit about privacy, they also don't shy away to give the finger to companies that don't. It's a shame they have to put their time into ways to stop Mocrosoft from spying, but I'm glad they're doing it.

Coming soon: Recall comes to Linux

I'm slowly moving everything to Linux. Currently working on getting my nas running.
Been on Linux for 18 months as my daily driver. Can't possibly love it any more.
Why not? đĄ
I keep dual booting just because sometimes Linux does crap itself.
I have been troubleshooting what's going on with my kde desktop (both x11 and wayland affected) for about 8 hours no with no success. I have a zoom appointment this afternoon so I am glad I can still boot into (retch) Windows.
What distro are you using? And what is the problem(s) you're having?
I ask because there's a bunch of really smart I dividuals with extensive experience in Linux (not me, sorry) and from my experience, most people here love to help others troubleshoot Linux (along other OSs).
I created a dual boot to test the waters for a HTPC, and haven't had to go back once. But Linux mint did shit the bed just once recently where the wifi drivers died. Only solution was to connect a cable, download a kernel update, then back to 100%.
