I have never needed to use my programming knowledge to use Linux nor have I had an issue with drivers. Dunno what the hate is for, at least Linux works without changing half the values in the registry to make it tolerable or having an active internet connection (it won’t install the OS without making you create a Microsoft account so they can attach all of the information they collect on you to a profile that enables them to deliver more relevant advertisements directly to your operating system)

it won’t install the OS without making you create a Microsoft account

I’m not pro-Windows by any means, but this simply isn’t true.

  Yea, kinda. It forces it hard though.
  
  There is no obvious way to skip the MS account. You can select that it is a managed device and create a local user that way, but afaik that’s the last option left and obviously it is there for a very different intention.
  
  I am sure that if MS could remove it completely they would.

  You need to open a secret command prompt and type in a command. The person in replying to is apparently deathly allergic to typing out simple commands in a terminal, so he certainly wouldn’t be able to get around it.

    You don’t need to open a secret command prompt or type a command to not install without an account lmao. Linux fanboys just keep on lying to support their dying OS It’s hilarious haha.

    “dying”
    
    The world runs quite literally mostly on Linux. The vast majority of servers, all android phones, Chromebooks, and a growing percentage of desktops
    
    Windows on the other hand is literally losing market share. But sure it’s Linux that is dying lol
    
    That’s why valve built steam deck with windows in mind ;)

    There is a wrong way to be right about something, and this comment is a great example of that.

    Um, no you don’t. I mean you can do it that way if you want I suppose, but you can just use the good ol’ decline button too.
