I wish I had mustered up the courage to leave Windows earlier; my PCs are so quiet now (programming.dev)

I feel like trying to persuade people to leave Windows purely from a privacy angle is being too specific or extreme for those who really don't care/gave up. I think a great, alternative way to win people over would be to simply point out how much more efficient it is and energy-saving for their own electric bills.

Just don't warn them about how much energy they may end up ironically expending as a result of tinkering with it and fixing issues and finding cool stuff like Burn My Windows, haha... ๐Ÿคซ

๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘ you'll get so many dudes by telling them to toss their Nvidia card away and go buy this specific motherboard so your Bluetooth works ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ‘Œ๐Ÿ‘

Valve released a proprietary device that bumped usage 2% and y'all still believe this shit. Amazing. Just constant self sabotage.

The only reason nix + gaming is as popular as it is, is because valve has made those drivers useable and packed it up as neatly as possible.
