Never used 7 or 8 but had 10 briefly and it was so bad I switched to Debian not having a clue what to expect from Linux. Never looked back, but I do sorta miss Win2K. I really liked that one.

People who voluntarily use Microsoft, Google and Apple get all the fuckery they deserve.

If you're forced to use it at work. Look for a new job/career.

If you can't find a job that doesn't force those malware, constant camera and/or microphone surveillance, well, you're a slave living in a panopticon gulag (state), in your home, traveling to work (if they let you outside) and at work.

Only freedom now is mental. If you can't go out, go in.

Man I love open source devs. What freedom they give us all! There's no hope for humanity without them.
