Adobe is just as bad if not worse, and their software has historically been the only reason to suffer through windows. Now that Linux (and Mac) are closing the gap for gamers, less and less people will be forced to suffer through the flaming shit show that is Windows.

While that’s all potentially true, I don’t think it does anything to lessen the case against Google.

Also they force you to upgrade by refusing to activate old versions of Windows.
Plus they force you tie your outlook account to your Windows install in order to make them stop asking you about it during login.
Google search is useless now. Only now there is no competition so effectively all online search is overall useless.

I'd honestly be interested in 1 of their competitors who isn't doing this.

No argument there.
finally, what does this have to do with Google's antitrust?
- that Windows is spyware
- that Microsoft is abusing their position by forcing Edge on users and bundling Teams, Outlook, Office365
- MS software quality is atrocious and I wish we weren't stuck with their garbage. Even bill gates has to agree with this under oath or he will be perjuring himself
