Windows 11 repeatedly promoting Edge, Onedrive and Phone link annoyed me. There must be a "Don't remind me again." checkbox.

Firefox has been reliable. Brave seems 👍. I haven't wanted Edge as my main.

I already have a Onedrive account. It was reliable. I haven't needed the Onedrive system tray icon. I just went to onedrive.com. On the other hand, I've had the Dropbox system tray icon.

I haven't wanted to use Phone link.

Have you considered switching to Linux?

[–] PineRune@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I recently got a laptop, and going through all the bloatware pushed me to try Linux Mint after not using a Linux OS in a Decade. I think the only reason I'll use Windows at this point is for specific games or software that can't run on Linux for whatever reason (anti cheat and whatnot).

It's a good o/s and it keeps your breath fresh.

No. The promotions annoyed me but not extremely. Anyway, it's been 👍 to know I could always switch to Linux. There's @level1linux if I wanna know more re Linux. I think Wendell's an expert.
