    That’s true, it sucks. Although that happens once and it’s done. But I always have to find ways of making gnome usable, like where is the minimize button? It’s nice using linux, I’d love to. But the thing is I’m not saying windows is good, I’m saying linux is complete shit too. Everything has some dumbass issue or other and it’s on the cusp of breaking. And we have to use all of the crap

      Is Linux perfect? Absolutely not and I have never made that claim.

      My point was merely that Windows users are bombarded with popups from the start and Microsoft are only going to get more aggressive with their monetisation practices.

      Im annoyed about stuff all the time on Linux but rarely do I feel the seething rage I get when Windows tries to push ads on me. On an OS I fucking paid for.

        Yeah, that’s fair. It’s just that for some reason I don’t get ads at all, maybe because I use w10, or maybe because I’m in the poor world so ads don’t make sense maybe.

      GNOME should set better defaults. I shouldn’t need even two extensions for basic desktop functions (I know minimize button doesn’t need an extension, not specifically that).

        Well you see how it is. Windows knows better, gnome knows better too. Who are we to have ideas about our own workflow or desktop or whatever
