Re:The values of Emacs, the Neovim revolution, and the VSCod... by tartoran on Sunday January 17, 2021 @03:10PM (#25814440)
I use windows for work and as soon as im done I reboot on a linux partition. My daily driver is linux as I hate the lack of control I have and the insecurity (i feel that microsoft does whatever behind the scenes) i get on windows. For example after an update windows shoves me an edge icon on the desktop. I removed all the bloatware on the laptop and multiple times things are re-enabled after an update. I also cannot turn off updates if i want to. There are a few services for which I as an admin have no way of turning off or even change any settings. Wtf! I was able to gain some control of my machine with some registry settings but at the next update everything was overwritten. F that, i don’t wanna play whack-a-mole anymore. If i need to use some windows software i boot the windows partition, then when done boot up on linux. Ubuntu these days is low friction, most Hw works out of box, etc.
