Those of you who still use windows for one reason or more, where do you draw the line about the shitty things microsoft is doing? By drawing the line I mean using some other operating system no matter how bothersome it might be.

Not judging or anything, i'm just curious where the general mindset is about it.

Thank you for mentioning that, wasn't aware it was doing that. Disabled it now.

    You can find plenty more shit like this just taking a scroll through the settings app/menu. Anything mentioning "predictions", "suggestions", "send data to microsoft", "help us make your experience better", "automatic personilazation", "use your data to improve", "telemetry" and the like is data collection for Microsoft's sake with little to no direct impact on the function of the OS or other software.
