I’m considering the same thing with my PC too actually! I have put up with so much crap from Microsoft on Windows, but this full force into AI thing is really putting me off. And Recall is really just the cherry on top.
Those of you who remember me from the Discord though may know me for a time period going between Linux and Windows a lot when something inevitably happened with Linux. This time I have a plan.
I already own a fairly recent laptop (probably more powerful than my desktop in some regards) which is running Windows 11. For several reasons, it pretty much needs Windows. My hope is that by running both operating systems on two different machines, I might be able to actually use Linux for real this time. Not to mention. There’s also much better compatability with games on Steam than when I first did this.
