Wayyy ahead of you, I have a collection of vintage cookbooks that is growing by the day! Muahahahha :D

Linux will never become relevant on the desktop until its has better spyware support.

“But I am more than happy to root around the registry and make changes to obscure variables that will be reverted in the next update”

“No, you don’t understand, Linux is not desktop ready, I know that because I installed Fedora back in 2008 and it was kinda wonky.”

One of the reasons why I never dual boot. Unfucking GRUB is not on my priority lists.

So it’s going to be opt-in not opt-out. Just don’t turn it on. Simple as.

“Don’t worry babe, it’s just the tip”

Even my fediverse instance (lemmy.world) was down. The internet was invented so shit like this would NOT happen. Fuck the corporate internet.

tl:dr use Linux or I will crawl into your bedroom and suck your toes while you’re asleep.

any practice that restricts my personal freedom in any way is bad

Yes? I don’t want to live in a world where giant companies decide what I can and cannot see. And big companies are bad, they act as pseudo governments that aren’t accountable to anyone, we used to break them apart before they started buying up politicians and political power.
