The other day it rewrote a registry key that prevented these pop ups.

This is what drove me away. There are like 7 people that figured out how to make these pop-ups disappear and Microsoft invested money to “patch” that “error” to ensure they were forced to continue seeing these ads.

Why would they do that when people use this one all the same?

Plenty of other places to upload images. I think catbox.moe is a popular one.

Haha, should have known you can’t post that shit around here.

But I agree, I use Brave and it’s awesome! They even have a private LLM!

The poor UI and lack of polish has been a big problem in design communities for a long time

I dunno what to tell you except that it’s not a problem now.

For all the deserved shit that Windows gets, it “just works” without ever needing to touch config or a terminal.

Most people don’t need to use anything other than a browser, which works fine.

I can’t see Reddit anymore

A nice looking UI with good fonts, and a clean interface.

Pretty much anything beats Windows in that regard.

The ability to run random Windows applications with minimal fuss.

I mean if you REALLY can’t find a FOSS alternative, Bottles has been extremely successful and easy for me…

All without needing to use the terminal

This is the biggest hangup for me. Even if there is a GUI, most instructions will send you into the terminal nonetheless.

Better question is “why not”?

Uhhhh well maybe you’re privvy to some insider information you’d like to share? Because they’ve announced no such intention.

Probably could have chosen different terminology but “grows” doesn’t necessarily mean more people became gay, it could just mean that more people openly identified that way.

Isreal showing us what an actual genocide of a captive Muslim population looks like

…are you under the impression that this is the first genocide in the history of the human race?

Just like that, hey? Good thing you invested as much time into that as you did coming to troll the readers of this thread.

You really should start looking into the sources for more articles you read about China

I do. I think it’s about time you gave it a try.

one single guy who has stated it is his mission from God to bring down China.

LOL what? Which guy is that?

propaganda is incredibly effective

That much becomes more clear to me every day. I didn’t realize there were CCP trolls in Lemmy already.

Really not looking for whataboutisms to justify their atrocities…

This is really just common knowledge at this point.

E: looks like the CCP has even infiltrated the mods of this community.

The reason is called the Digital Markets Act.
