No, Windows comes preinstalled on most PC's due to clever marketing. As stated, it's more a case of people thinking Windows is the computer as opposed to any form of comfort regarding a fragmented touch/desktop UI making poor use of screen real estate.

I come across a number of Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa types that outright struggle with Windows; the device they feel comfortable with is the iPad.

Been using FF since forever, never felt my experience was in any way slow compared to Chrome.

I think it's a Java thing?

I never stopped using Firefox, and I never had a problem with anything but Government sites.

Nvidia here under Linux, been running Nvidia hardware/drivers for about five years now with little in the way of problems. The latest hardware is supported on release, and my performance while gaming is fantastic.

Even Wayland support is maturing under Linux running Nvidia hardware/drivers, to the point whereby it's mostly as usable as Wayland gets now.

At least you have the option of running the latest Nvidia hardware under Linux, it seems dedicated GPU support under MacOS is dwindling by the month.

Does EAC work correctly playing Apex Legends under Linux? If it does I'll download the game tonight.

Put simply, I'm tired of being the product, and it's obvious that Reddit wanted to implement more data harvesting and more advertising to their platform. Couple that with the outrageous cost to use their API, and it's bye, bye Reddit.

I haven't experienced an issue adding PPA's in about four years. The package manager simply does what it's meant to do and things just work.
