  • A Chrome extension called “Microsoft to Microslop” that renames Microsoft references in browsers as a protest against the company’s aggressive AI integration.
  • The extension reflects widespread user frustration with Microsoft’s Copilot AI, which faces extremely low adoption rates and growing privacy concerns among Windows users.
  • Many users actively seek ways to remove AI features from Windows, highlighting significant backlash against Microsoft’s AI strategy despite CEO dismissals of complaints.

Linux Mint is a fantastic place to start (I would say the best place, personally). It's especially good if you use an Nvidia card, as it makes the driver install trivial with the built-in driver installer tool.

If you don't use an Nvidia card, I'd personally recommend going with the Linux Mint Debian Edition.

    What if I do have an Nvidia card? I've been to and fro on switching for such a long time. I have so much random shit on my PC that it's making the overhead to leave daunting.
