- 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.
The only issue with Fedora, and it isn’t a big one, is that the maintainers are adament about only including OSS. This isn’t much of an issue except that it doesn’t come with some video codecs IIRC. This meant that some videos online wouldn’t play until you add the codec. This isn’t hard, but it is a small frustration point for casual users.
Go with Bazzite. It’s built off of Bluefin which is an atomic version of Fedora.
Bazzite has all the accoutrements for gaming built into it.
its not because they are adamant about OSS, but because the H.264 and H.265 codecs have software patents that require distributors paying a license fee. the situation is a bit unclear, that’s why some distros choose to distribute these drivers. Besides fedora, opensuse and others too do not distribute these drivers.
but flatpak versions of software will get downloaded along with these drivers, and that will work on any distro, because flathub decided they can distribute these drivers. bit of a courageous move, but I guess they know what they are doing.
