Spotify is getting worse as well, at least on desktop.

"we are moving the album to a right sidebar, it now only occupies more of your screen"

"we liked the right sidebar so much that we are moving the queue over there as well, we're also removing useful info like album and artist"

I shouldn't have to use spicetify just to get basic features back

I do actually know a fair share of people using Linux in my social circle, but a lot of them uses both windows and Linux. My family uses Linux for their private devices, as that was a requirement to get my technical support. And an increasing number of my friends are moving over to Linux.

What I find weird is the sudden increase of 10% (from 18.16% to 29.04%). Like, did everyone get back from vacation after a Linux conversion camp or something?

So in theory, one third of everyone I meet should be a linux user. Yet everyone uses windows. 🤔 Am I the 30%?? /sw

That would be a valid option, but only if there are no windows dependencies and the primary user agrees to the change.

With all the Win11 spam in Win10, my grandmother decided to try Linux. She is now a 90-year-old Linux user. Her use case is YouTube and email, and I have to support the system (I had to do that for the win10 system as well).

Have you run a full scan using Windows Defender?

Can you confirm that the worm is actually running?

AV software may remove the installed worm from the system, but not from the drive.

Probably a good idea to reformat the USB drive

PS. if all else fails, nuke and pave (reinstall the computers in your household, including your linux machine)

You should do this offline, as in, quarantine the situation.

There is an app called Obtainium. This allows downloading signed apps directly from source

That is old(ish) news. And f-droid have since then implemented allowing reproducible builds

which allows for developer signed keys to be used for the APK
