They kind of just ignore that the crypto feature is opt-in.
The fact that the dev behind brave is a homophobe isn't opt in though...

The dev behind Brave isn't part of Brave anymore.

I'm probably going to have to move to 11 at some point (Linux isn't for me right now), but I would like to be able to disable as much bloatware as possible. Vigilance it is then.
I'm in the same boat waiting for Linux to be a bit more "feature complete," for me to daily.
In the mean time, check out W11 Enterprise IoT LTSC. It's the secret menu item equivalent W11 they don't wanna sell to consumers. It feels like a fresh W7 install with no AI, no bloat, no bullshit, and can even disable all telemetry. Only comes with Edge and Defender.
massgrave.dev has the iso's and permanent activators.
Edit: Adding that you can install the App Store and Xbox App to make use of Game Pass.

Running Linux would block this feature too.
Just reason sayin.
Switching to Linux made me like computers again. Switching to Hyprland made me love computers again.

Keep In mind that you can still be captured by this feature indirectly,
Discord for example certainly doesn’t intend to do anything to hide your messages, they recently went public so in their eyes more tracking the better. -
Brave's CEO is a homophobic Trump supporter. No thanks.
He invented JavaScript, so definitely don't use that either. For real. JavaScript sucks.

Yeah but then you can't run Xbox Games Pass or anything fun like that.

They're certainly talking about it but they haven't announced a date yet.
Having said that, element and matrix are both more privacy respecting so I do agree with the recommendation in general.

Lovely, thanks for the reminder on massgrave. I made the switch to Linux and haven't looked back, but there are some games that require root kits that I'd like to play so I was considering virtualizing Windows and this would be perfect.

Apologies, I striked the lines out of my previous comment. It simply was an example of how you still can be captured.

Thanks. I'll look into that. My current version had been pushing me to update, which I've been postponing and I'm guessing is free, but I'm not sure it'll give the choice of version. My work computer just updated to W11 Enterprise literally this morning, so I'll get myself used to it here before making the leap.

I can live without Game Pass.

That's saying that he left Mozilla for that. He's still CEO of Brave

Can't believe this poor reading comprehension is getting upvoted.

installation of software on Linux is very bad. Literally everything else on Linux is very ready for the mass market, but installing apps is horrible to the point of making the whole OS not ready for the general public
What? When was the last time you tried Linux?
With flatpak, it’s usually a one-click process to install anything nowadays.

You can install the Store and Xbox app, and use Gamepass. I have a friend that does this, after I showed them how.

Switching to TempleOS made me hear the voices again.

I use Linux regularly, and the last time i installed an app was probably within the past 365 days

Modern Mac hardware is excellent. The software is good too, but’s more a matter of taste. Not everybody likes how macOS works but Asahi Linux has made incredible progress so it’s a daily driver option for some already.
Mac hardware is a fucking atrocity. $2k for a "pro" laptop with 8GB RAM and 256GB storage and no i/o except 4 USBC ports, that's completely and intentionally irreparable and unupgradeable? SSDs and RAM that are marked up 3000%? That's what you call "excellent"? If they were cheap I might not completely object to them being disposable but it's the opposite. It's fucking gaslighting. You'll never convince me it's anything other than a cult.

Actually, Linux doesn't block windows, it just isn't windows.
Just reason saying.
Actually it does! When youre installing, just delete the windows boot partition and your done!
