    If you think Edge is a bust, I got news for you: if you are using Windows, pretty much everything spies on you now days. :)

      Every year that goes by, the less my colleagues give funny looks when I talk about being a Linux user. These days it’s more often envy – my default browser never changes, I can put my start menu wherever I like, my hard-drive never spontaneously encrypts itself, my user account never deletes and replaces itself with an always-online doppleganger. These statements are somehow impressive brags and that amuses me greatly.

      To anyone who used Linux once upon a time and got scared off - try it again. Nowadays so much works without any config, driver support is so much better and, at least with my last year using Fedora, it’s incredibly stable.

      And if you get stuck, ChatGPT is so good at helping you through the experience. Also, IMO, once you spend a week or so to get used to Gnome desktop environment it’s better than both windows and macos.

        I really wouldn’t tell anyone to rely on ChatGPT for technical support. It’s fine if you already sort of know what you’re doing, but it has a tendency to “lie” very convincingly and come up with either broken or even potentially harmful solutions
