[QUOTE="Captain Holly, post: 1031036, member: 90494"] I wonder how long it will be before MS starts adding unwanted and unnecessary "new features" to the Windows OS itself. I already voiced how I feel about AI and interacting with robots but will add here that I also do not want anything at all to do with crypto. Period. Crypto is nothing but an outright scam used by crooks, criminals and thieves and I want nothing to do with it. I have been working with Linux the last few weeks, dual booting Mint on my older Windows 10 laptop, learning how Linux works and what I can do with it. I like Linux a lot but today I fired up my Windows 11 laptop, just to keep it updated and possibly pay more attention to the differences between Windows and Linux. Things like this crypto nonsense and AI and the forced Bing junk are all really reaffirming that I made a very good decision to move to Linux. I think I may set up this newer Windows 11 laptop to dual boot Mint or possibly another distro this weekend. MS and Edge just keep getting worse. I have been using the Chromium browser in Mint and it works great so far. It looks and works a lot like Chrome without the creepy ads and tracking. Firefox also works very will in Mint. I found it interesting and very reassuring that FF and Chromium were the default browsers in Mint. C.H. [/QUOTE]
