Dude, enjoy your Windows then.

Well, I'm a Linux user so I can't.

This is not Twitter (or X or whatever) where you can go do your master’s bidding of creating noise to try and control the normies

Of course you can! Just like on every other social media! What are you even talking about? :D

Here most of us know how to do research and have the ability to differentiate bots (human or otherwise) from actual thinking individuals with a modicum of common sense and more than 2 functioning brain cells.

You'd think that, but if you actually know a bit about tech, this community is hilariously ignorant most of the time - on all the matters you mentioned. :D

Look at your down-votes and take a hint. That bullshit has no effect here.

The hint is that this community is extremely aggressive towards language that goes against the hive-mind. The bullshit has no effect because people can't differentiate what's bullshit and what isn't, so they just automatically assume any statement that isn't violently anti-MS is bullshit spewed by bots at their master's bidding.

Take your comment as example...
