I am switching to Linux, and I am not all that techy and am a really old lady.
You know Windows is bad when your grandparents are jumping ship.
And it is not because I have a burning desire to learn a new
operating system, or have taken on a side hustle as an international
spy that mandates a more secure system nor did I decide I needed
to supplement my pension with some drug deals and Linux was a
safer system to coordinate my new worldwide cartel.
No I am switching to Linux because every time Windows updates
there is a not insignificant chance it will brick my laptop the way
it happened to my daughter. Or how after one update my sound
stopped working after another, the microphone. There is always
something.
So yeah the old ones are jumping ship even though I am not
exited about it.I really hope it is not too techy...
I am absolutely guilty in assuming that the vast majority of fediverse peeps are millennial and gen Z reclusive techie nerd types with a strong slant toward male. To the degree that I almost don't believe you.
