    Welcome to Lemmy. If Windows is ever mentioned, the knee jerk reaction is "Windows bad. Linux good.”

      Don’t get me started on how many fear mongering articles keep making it to the top with comments about “Microsoft adding anti-features with no way to disable them” or “Microsoft will just reset it with the next update anyway, why bother” because people can’t be bothered to take 5 minutes to skim through the settings app. Learned helplessness.

      I get the frustration that it’s necessary in the first place. I get the frustration when it’s something that needs to be fixed through the registry or group policy because that’s not straight forward.

      But the sheer amount of false information being parroted by people who never took the time to look into configuring their own device is absolutely absurd.
