Moving to Windows

After nearly a decade of using Mac OS, and recently years of using Linux, I've come to realize I've been denying myself. I'm a Windows guy, through and through.

I love Copilot, and only Windows puts it everywhere, including Notepad! I don't want to write words, that's so last year. Basic computing skills are a thing of the past, chatting with Copilot is the future.

I get too comfortable with what I use day to day, and want recommendations on apps and services I should subscribe to. I love that Windows reminds me of things I could spend money on via the Start menu, the taskbar and the lockscreen. It's refreshing.

I can't stand open source, it's terrifying. I prefer a closed platform. Why would I trust random contributors over a multi-billion dollar enterprise that has my best interests at heart?

I love friends, so why wouldn't I want to make new friends by sharing my information with "advertising partners"? They'll make my life better, using complex algorithms to figure out exactly what I want to buy before even I know.

I have a laptop with 32GiB of RAM and Ryzen 7 that go mostly unused on Fedora. What a waste. Windows will make sure I get my money's worth by filling that memory and running that CPU.

Stability is boring, why would I want the same experience day in and day out? Look at how exciting Microsoft has made Github, every day is an adventure on the status page. I want that joy in my operating system.

So there it is, the truth is out, Windows is my home. I'm nuking Fedora on my System76 Pang12 and installing Windows 11 (well, once I create Microsoft account and have WiFi so I can get through the installer).

Now if I could just get past this blue screen of death that says "April Fools - Brought To You By Microslop".
