I miss Windows 3.11.

Why are companies obsessed with adverts. They ruin the UX, they annoy users, and frankly, if i see an advert in something im trying to enjoy, at this point, it makes me actively not want to buy whatever is being sold.

When adverts fill the peripheral or are unintrusive, they are acceptable. When they interrupt the flow of what i am doing, i want to burn them.

I appreciate that they are how we make things free, but there is a point where they tip the balance of being worth it into the negative. And frankly, adverts in my OS are way over the line. I'd rather pay for windows 11 than use it with adverts. Perhaps its time for me to join a large number of my fellow lemmings and use linux.

That's it, someone either needs to come up with an adblocker for this or i'm actually forced to move to linux.

I hop this kills windowd, i really do.

People who use windows probably don't mind even. Everyone who uses windows at my workplace just gets used to the shit and don't think about it.
