    There is no end on Microsoft nagging:

    • Trying to install Firefox.
    • Windows: Why would you need another browser? You already have a browser. Use Microsoft Edge.

      That’s why i completely nuked Edge when i was still on windows 11. Including WebView. I simply did not give a fuck if anything used edge.

      When i installed (fedora) linux for the first time, i was like:

      wait… this really does only what i tell it to! holy shit!

      And i never looked back. (And i distrohopped over time. I am currently using arch, and testing NixOS in a VM via virt-manager. If i find it to be good enough, i’ll copy the config and install on my host, alongside arch. And slowly, i’ll nixify my pc.)

        Nix made me love my computer. I have everything I want and if anything goes wrong I just rollback. After a taste it’s the only OS that feels right

      I’ve been using Firefox for over a decade, and Windows has never complained about it. What are you talking about?

        I think this started with Windows 10, don’t know which version though. A couple examples from the net:
