Comment on Windows just changed the desktop wallpaper and re-added the search bar without my permission after an update

Yeah, well that’s the difference between us. I don’t believe OP, and I think this is just a troll. You can believe whatever you want, but I’m calling OP a liar liar pants on fire.

I recently moved to Linux because windows did the first time setup pop up on me when I needed to use my 5 year old desktop in a time crunch before I was late.

When I got back, somehow despite me telling windows no to resetting my default browser to edge, my default browser was edge and windows had updated to windows 11.

Is it possible I misread the dialog because I was in a rush. Sure. It is. But also fuck microsoft.

Sure, because it logically follows that the troll here is the “I had an irritating and unexpected behavior on windows” person, not the “Linux users are troglodytes” person.

FWIW, windows also did this to me as a part of the “oh god please oh please use Bing search on Edge” campaign.
