I’m not moving the goal posts, you just ignored one of them.

Okay well. I don’t have a script. I just use a computer.

If I need a script to make it work properly, it sucks.

They don’t spy on you without your permission.

You should probably edit your comment to clarify that they don’t listen to you.

“Spying” doesn’t really have a clear definition in this context. Amazon employees have been caught spying on customers through their cameras, and giving away clips to authorities without “owners’” consent, consult or notification.

PiHole just blocks the DNS. Facebook serves ads from their own DNS so it’s not possible to block them in that way. Same with YouTube, I believe.

But if they click it, it usually ports you through a tracker link so they can track your clicks, and that’s easy enough to block.

Specifically, the plug-ins are using our services in an unauthorized manner

By plug-ins, you mean your customers?

There is no “religious cult”. Just users who want a better experience.

They still put unremovable ads in your inbox when you buy premium. They’re fairly subtle but still incredibly frustrating.

I don’t really like tablets in the first place. Don’t understand what they’re for that laptops can’t already do.

But aside from that, the problem is not hardware, it’s the OS. Android, iOS and iPad OS are all distinctly very different from their desktop counterparts, with respect to how you interact with the device. Linux needs the same.

helenslunch, to linux in Sell Me on Linux
@helenslunch@feddit.nl avatar

only ever used windows, but I’m getting fed up with the bullshit

Well that’s why I switched 🤷

Drove me fucking insane that I couldn’t uninstall Edge. Tried a few times but it always reinstalled itself. It’s just the audacity to say “no fuck you” to the person who is giving you money. Can’t disable Cortana, can’t disable all the XBOX bullshit, not to mention it’s just becoming more and more like Android where the entire OS becomes dedicated to collecting your data. Linux has none of that, and that’s enough for me.

I’m also nervous about using an OS I’m not familiar with for business purposes right away.

Couple of solutions for this:

  1. Dual boot. When you have a hard time, just restart and boot into Windows.
  2. You can’t transfer storage across OS so make sure to use cloud storage for your work files.

Yes but Google banned them from the extension store so if you’re using Chromium you need to sideload it.

Biggest benefit of those things is that they come with SATA ports so you can use them to build a <$100 2-bay NAS which is about half the price of popular competitors but with way more power.
