Hey y'all, today I experienced another push for Linux from our friend Microsoft.
5 minutes ago, I wanted to use the timer app on Windows, so I could manage my work/break schedule, and this fucker showed up.
Yes, that's a prompt to sign in with a Microsoft account to use the clock. If you close it, it pops up 30s later. Clicking “Don't sign in” or closing the process responsible for displaying it is useless, and guess what… IT PAUSES THE TIMER WHEN IT SHOWS UP.
I guess this is another thing added to the super long list of things which will eventually make me switch my main workstation to Linux once win10 is discontinued.

Hope y'all are having a great day :3
I used to dual boot pop os and windows, but stopped once I had too many issues trying to run non Linux native software trough wine. Once I'll get my workflow Linux ready, I think I'll use some distro with KDE
Yeah getting wine prefixes setup is a pain in the ass but normally once you find out the right settings for something it's fairly stable (as long as the app you're running doesn't update without your consent or something). Often the WineHQ's application database has some tips on what works for an app
