Microsoft is using malware-like pop-ups in Windows 11 to get people to ditch Google
(www.theverge.com)
After 30 years on MacOS (yes, I am older than dirt), I switched to Windows 11. I love it. With a few software add-ins, notably Better Desktop Tool and Start11, as well as a deep-dive into Settings/Notifications, etc., it's useable, comfortable, fairly Mac-like, and not too annoying. I guess I'm lucky as I don't have any UI/UX baggage from past Windows OSs to drag behind me. Yeah, it's different than MacOS, but I can get stuff done.
Old news, try to get something new to talk about!
But I already ditched it
Let them fight.
