    Absolutely this. If everyone just used their preferred OS and got along doing computer things, that’d be great. But when biggie-techs like M$ are constantly deciding to make stonks-money-fueled, idiotic waves that forcibly affect practically everyone who uses a computer at all, (like a dedicated “AI button” on keyboards. Or announcing they’ll suddenly just paperweight WMR (VR) devices whenever they feel like it, or the whole “Windows 11 makes a bunch of recent hardware incompatible” thing, or Bing shenanigans…), it draws plenty of justified ire.

    I grew up with Windows and loved it until later versions began getting more and more “user-hostile”.
