@MacNCheezus I'm not denying this, just figured I'd bring up that there's a lot that can go towards failing you, privacy-wise.

Apple has it's own host of problems (third-party repair lockouts being high on the list of them when I think about it) but if privacy is the primary concern they seem pretty good.

@MacNCheezus @Interstellar_1 Earnest question - do you read the ToS on the apps on your phone? I know Apple recently has gotten on a pseudo-privacy kick as of late (they were having a bit of a public-facing slapfight with Facebook over it) but the apps may be collecting usage data and using the ToS to say they can. Apps like Spotify and GMaps are *bad about this*.

@Mandarbmax Sometimes the examples need found, sometimes they present themselves xD

@MeDuViNoX @captainlezbian Hello, other weird person heard you from across the bar and decided to interject.

For gaming it's really 2-3 operating systems that are probably going to have the best results.

Ubuntu, for all Canonical's faults, has the widest array of online resources for finding problems.

Pop_OS! is similar to Ubuntu but maintained by System76 and I've seen sometimes said to be better.

SteamOS 3.0 (the OS on the Steam Deck) has two desktop derivatives in HoloISO & Chimera OS.

@fsxylo @Mandarbmax Two of the three direct replies are solid Exhibits A and B of exactly what you're talking about xD
