From Microsoft to Microslop to Linux: Why I Made the Switch https://www.himthe.dev/blog/microsoft-to-linux

Welcome to the dark side Jokes aside, it's not too late to dump the spyware and "slop OS" for something that respects your privacy and safety. Make your personal computer feel like you actually own it again. Switch to Linux today!

@nixCraft to answer his question in the first paragraph: my first computer was an IBM compatible with an 80286 CPU, 1mb of RAM, a 5.25" floppy and before it became mine the addition of 20MB hard drive. It had only CGA graphics and a CGA monitor which displayed magenta as amber and cyan as grey.

This was in 1987 .. It was the computer I learned LOGO on and later taught myself basic on.

I remember the specs of my first PC 39 years later.

If he's weird, we are all weird.

And even better, Linux now *looks* much better than Windows. It's like they sucked the life out of it and sold it off somewhere.
