@jon On a corporate Windows, your login is on a server, since your pc is part of a domain. I'm pretty sure gouvernent pcs aren't using home editions.

As for home editions, I agree. Microsoft is pushing really hard to make people use their services. Made me switch for Linux!

@sirber @jon tbh, they were already pushing that in W8. it's why i switched to Linux back then, only to find out Ubuntu is being colonized by Micro$$$oft and have been adopting a lot of their fuckery.

had to shut down wifi on all computers i installed 20.04 so that i would properly "skinny" install from an USB. w/wifi, it calls back to Ubuntu servers for a lot of the non-essential ish. it stalled all my installs.

haven't upped to 24.04 yet because am seriously considering moving to Debian.

@blogdiva @jon I can't stand Ubuntu. I love Fedora. It's up to date and shit free.

Debian should be nice too, but packages are a few majors behind. For a server, it might be ok, but for a desktop, it's not.

@sirber @jon but didn't Red Hat also start locking down a lot of projects? am more than frustrated and annoyed with these companies. am exhausted, TBH.

@blogdiva @jon I think they use Fedora as their upstream. They sponsor but not own, if I understand correctly.
