Well we do have Microslop Copilot 365 now. It’s only natural that Microslop Copilot 11 is the name of the OS.
I’m so happy to see countries in europe wholly moving to linux. I’m six months into cachyos, and 9 months into overall linux on my main system every day. 3 months into fully switching at work. I’ve worked in mac shops in the past in various IT roles so it’s not hard for me to drop windows entirely anyway. We’re seeing more and more support from companies for linux too, even nvidia is getting serious.
I still wish we had a third real option for phones but the sacrifice is too high in that realm for now.
I have iPhone SE 1st gen (circa 2016 or so) and iPhone 12 mini. One has iOS 15, another has iOS 26. I see almost no difference. If there was some Linux system with feature parity of iOS 6, I’d use it. But there’s no hardware that works properly, I assume. Or maybe there is, but it’s too expensive and too niche for now.
iOS is what I currently use because they seem marginally better than google for privacy lately, but I don’t trust any of it anymore with how easy all government orgs seem to be able to obtain methods of accessing things that they should have no way to do unless the user provides credentials or biometrics. The pre-ios-26 vulnerability is pretty bad and just requires visiting a website iirc too so probably be careful with those older devices if you’re still using them.
The biggest problem with android alternatives is google play attestation driving MDM, I do a lot of work with MDMs lately so I can’t really go that route. This style of lockdown where big brother (big tech companies) monitors everything about your phone seems to be where we’re going in the US with mandating identification to be proven to use devices, sign up for services, or otherwise interact with the internet. The noose is around our necks but the stools we’re standing on haven’t yet been kicked away.
NEEDS MORE COPILOT
…Copilot/Windows or as I like to call it, Copilot+Windows…
I want to interject here for a moment … what you call Windows is actually Copilot/Windows …

Which is a different product than Copilot/Windows+
