  Adobe Acrobat will grind it to a halt. Fucking how.

  god i hate the constant “LOG INTO AN ACCOUNT RIGHT NOW” with passion. i once had to log into a coworkers teams account and apparently windows decided that’s good enough and automatically & without asking linked my entire local windows account with her work microsoft account

  one log in took hours to undo

  learnt my lesson - never log into microsoft through any of their apps, only ever use web based alternatives (and never on your main browser either, as sometimes logging out is just as painful as logging in)

    Android does pretty much the same thing with Google accounts.

    “Oh you logged into YouTube music? Here, we added that account to your phone. You can now view alp Emails, access payment options and view the entire browser history without additional confirmation.”

  Adobe Acrobat will grind it to a halt.

  to be fair, Acrobat itself is a very heavy heap of dung. There’s no reason for anyone to use it if all they do with a .pdf is reading.

  Just because 11 is worse doesn’t mean 10 was good. 10 was a shit-show from the get-go. It came with aggressive dark patterns trying to trick people into installing it over their Win 7 and 8 machines, came with mandatory telemetry, ads in the start menu and a built-in keylogger.

  So it’s not “fuck 11”. It’s “fuck Windows”.

    Agreed on all points.

    At least 10 could be unshittified to an extent. But I don’t run Windows on any personal machines at all anymore, so its a moot point. My work laptop belongs to the company and is managed by them.
