Microsoft pushing out full-screen ads to Windows 10 users

[Redaktion]

Windows 10 users have been served full-screen upgrade warnings for Windows 11 before, but now, Microsoft is using the same tactic for full-on ads. Users are being shown the newest in the Microsoft Surface lineup, and being urged to upgrade their PC to get "the ultimate Windows 11 experience".

Perfect time to go Linux, no need to worry about full screen ads in your OS

Windows 11 was a full screen ad for Linux. And they absolutely convinced me to switch.

Just another reason to not let your Windows powered PC to communicate with any MS owned domain.

For jobs or tasks that don't require 'internet access' simply unplugging from 'the net' is quick and easy and for jobs & tasks that DO REQUIRE internet access, there are almost countless open source alternatives available.

I'm just waiting for HarmonyOS next laptop. My expectation for anything else is 0: Macbooks will be sending my photos to the cloud and deleting them randomly under pretense of pedophilia, windows will screenshot me every few seconds under the pretense of its revind feature, Amazon will destroy Ubuntu and Microsoft will run everything else into the ground via The Linux Foundation.
Good luck trying to get my data out of communist china.

@HomerName

Could you explain this part of your comment "Amazon will destroy Ubuntu and Microsoft will run everything else into the ground via The Linux Foundation."
Have not heard anything about those problems.
What is the link between Amazon and Ubuntu, could not find it on web search...
