Forced to use my phone during a windows update which breaks my computer. My phone is shitty and slow. Google is full of unhelpful results. Youtube is showing nothing but political ads about ms-13 killing white people.

Truly 2024 is great.

FOSS is getting nicer and proprietary software is getting worse. Things are looking up, IMO.

Each update that almost kills my pc is driving me further and further to linux.

At this point my busted old laptop is like Son Goku who gets a powerup each near death fight he has.

Next PC build will 100% be Linux, I run it on most of my PCs, but my desktop runs Windows because of NVidia. Can’t wait, lol

Depending on how old your Nvidia card is you might be able to make the jump now, the beta drivers released in the last couple months have made huge leaps in making Nvidia cards function on Wayland. My only remaining gripe is discord flickering but I may just need to try a different discord client.

The FOSS alternatives to Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom, and Illustrator have really come a long way in the last 10 years.
