Notifications etc I can understand if you don’t know how to use tech properly.
What I don’t understand is how every older person seems to have loud speakerphone conversations in public. They had landlines most of their lives so why do this?
That desktop app really is super hot garbage.
I’ll hold out for the Pro Max Ultra
Linus is really, really shitty at responding to criticism. I don’t think it’s malice, it just didn’t occur to them.

Install windows, run debloat powershell script. Done.
Microsoft give no shortage of things to complain about without needing to exaggerate.

AppleTV+ ($14.99, Amazon Prime Video ($10.99) and Disney+ ($14.99) = $40.97 per month
YouTube Premium = $39.99 per month
I can’t justify premium. For the same price I can buy for my family:
AppleTV+, Amazon Prime Video and Disney+
Or:
YouTube but without ads
I threw Ubuntu 24.04 in a VM it’s been a few years since I’ve used it.

I’ve been with Tidal since. I miss the Spotify recommendation algorithm but that’s it.
Two to three times what Spotify pay artists per stream.
