I felt done with Windows when they added Copilot to my computer. Then I heard about Recall, and I made the switch the next day (since I have some extra free time.)

Turns out everything I want to do on Windows I can do just fine on Linux. Even play my silly old games. :cheesy: I run a distribution called Zorin OS.

note: for anyone who doesnt wanna use copilot, winaero tweaker allows you to completely disable it
just a note lol

I main Windows 7  :wink: To me it's the last great Windows OS, where Windows was still focused on being a good desktop operating system first and foremost. And the Aero UI is gorgeous  :grin: Plus I have everything already set up and installed perfectly on my machine, it would be a massive pain and a timesink to reinstall and reconfigure absolutely everything from the ground up again after years upon years of getting everything working just right and the way I like it.

All the risky stuff like online banking and sketchy website browsing I do on my other PC running Debian. I also have a couple other PCs running Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 for various purposes. But Win 7 is just the best  :cheerR:

None of my PCs meet the official system requirements for Windows 11, and with all the stuff I read about it, it's not like I'm exactly enthusiastic about running it anyway  :tongue:  For general computing purposes I'll migrate to open source operating systems when needed and then for gaming and music production I will keep my machines running Win7 and Win10 till the foreseeable future, possibly as offline-only machines.

I'm currently using Windows 10 on desktop, but I would love to switch to Linux Mint completely if I can get Clip Studio Paint working on it! I tested out Mint on an old laptop of mine and it works wonders, even most programs I use on desktop work with it! For now I just have to stick with Win10 until a solution for emulating Clip and other art & animation programs comes up.
