Windows 10 gets three more years of security updates, if you can afford them::Windows 10 gets a version of the program that extended updates for Windows 7.

      This is literally a discussion about operating systems, and how Windows is about to do something that will directly push people into needing or choosing a new one. Even without Lemmy’s culture this is an obvious time to mention Linux. You can bitch and cry and screech all you want, but you’re the one getting your panties in a bunch when Linux is literally on topic here.

          Except thats not how discussions work.

          People dont JUST strictly talk about the thing at hand and ONLY that. They bring up related things as well. Like Linux and how its an alternative to Windows 10 once it’s support period is up.

          Kind of like how someone might bring up the SNES in a discussion about the PS5 to make some kind of relevant point. Like how far consoles have come from the SNES to the PS5 or a game library comparison. Or something.

      If there’s something stupid that Apple does, people will talk about using Windows or Android instead. You’re the weird one for getting angry about something that’s completely expected.

          Look, if you can’t handle that people here like Linux, you’re probably better off just leaving the site altogether and going to somewhere like Reddit. Lemmy is FOSS, which is the main ethos behind Linux.

          You’re like the kid who goes into a McDonalds and then complains that they don’t serve fois gras there. What the fuck did you expect? It’s a fucking McDonald’s. They’re not gonna have that shit there.

          Also, it would help you out in your future if you understood the difference between people liking something and talking about it on their own with others and “shoving it down your throat”.

              Fact is there’s a lot of overlap in lemmy users and linux users. So youre going to see a lot of Linux talk.

              So you’re welcome to go somewhere else if you just can’t handle Linux talk.

              No one asked you to be on this website. Since you’re clearly in emotional distress over Linux, for your own mental health you should get off this site. Your entire post history is you complaining about the people on this site. If you’re truly this miserable, do yourself and all of us a favour.

              Hope your day is as lovely as you are!
