are those real? I don't believe anyone ever said "it's like linux but it works."

[-] eager_eagle@lemmy.world 19 points 3 months ago

it does work though, on windows i can see ads and intrusive crap all the time. Linux distros don't bother you at all, it's like linux is not even trying at this point.

Like make it entirely transparent Download this is you miss having ads lol

Ubuntu used to do ads pretty well, even before microsoft got better at them, haven't used that distro in a while, so can't confirm if that's the case still, but you might want to check it out.

That's 100% someone trolling Linux users.
