      …I mean it actually sounds quite good? That’s probably better secured than your password manager which has a very similar risk profile.

      … It should have been built like that from the start though! And this relies on Microsoft never watering it down so they can skim user data off the top…

      And it’s impossible to make the data truly secure. If a bag bad actor gets in, GG everything.

    Is there an equivalent to godwin’s law for Linux users? If you don’t have someone mention ditching windows you’ll never think to do it yourself

      Without Linux users advocating for Linux it would never reach the average consumer. We don’t have a marketing department we have to grassroots that shit.

      To be fair, I was in the camp of “put a sock in it” until I reached a point of “alright FINE, I’ll give it a go” and now I’m joining the choir on it, desktop Linux is a dream.

      It’s a bit grating as it’s preaching to the choir here, but people mainly do not know you can replace the OS, or frankly what an OS is.

      You really do have to evangelize for change to make this even occur to people.
