If you don't use Bing with Edge, Microsoft will tell you your computer needs repairing.

They are not wrong.

To mend your machine:

  1. Ditch Windows
  2. Install Plasma
  3. Your computer is ready.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social Do not fear the learning curve, for it is shallower now than a year ago.

@kde@floss.social @kde@lemmy.kde.social I'd like to use Plasma, but the last time I tried it, it didn't run very well on my PC.

I got rid of Edge entirely on my Windows machine. I wonder how Microsoft will act now.

I guess I should just become an immigrant since the land of Windows has been turning me down for quite a bit of time.

It doesn't say anything about repairing, this is such a low class clickbait.

All it says is that the default settings are changed, and they recommend resetting to their service. Because of course a company is going to recommend their own services. Would be a bad company if they didn't.

This is the actual picture they used in the article:

I use DDG on Edge, and haven't seen this.

I've got Mint on an old laptop. It seemed to require the least amount of fuckery to get working. No idea what Plasma is.

I just want an OS and browser, not a project.
