The report highlights how Microsoft interrupts the installation process of Google Chrome on Windows devices, promoting the security and privacy benefits of Edge.
Mozilla calls for regulatory action to restore browser choice and competition across major platforms.

When Linux gets around to supporting all the games I like I will

~~Alright, continue to suffer on Windows. Or fix it yourself.~~

Edit: I should have taken a different approach. It is difficult for older games or games specifically made for the Windows System. However there are many efforts made by good people. Valve's Proton is doing good things and Lutris is also making it easier. I am not expecting that all the games will run however there a few options that others made such as filing issues with the manufacturers or supporting projects that try to port it / fix it in some other way.

Is this how you advocate for Linux?

Why bother trying to convince people like you who only complain about Windows, but are way too lazy to do anything about? It's just a waste of my time. I'd much rather gloat about how I don't have to deal with crap like this. Don't come on here and expect sympathy for something that is entirely within your power to change.

Alright, go ahead and do that. Surely that'll help the mainstream perception of Linux and its community.
