Im preaching to the choir with this, but I think its relevant for context: The reasons Im not using windows are ads, tracking, forced updates, AI "features", automatic reversion of your uninstalls/settings after updates, slow/buggy/bloated/vibe coded. These things are enough of an issue for me to the point that if an alternative didnt exist, I would not have a PC. That means linux and its future are a pretty big deal to me. Weve already seen some give into age attestation (shoutout to agelesslinux.org), there are debates being had about development practices (vibe coding), debates about incorporating AI slop features (weve already lost firefox there), hardware attestation would regretfully see some compliance given how age attestation went, etc. Does anyone else worry about the path linux could be on?
