I was getting sick of Window’s bloat and telemetry so I replaced Windows on every single one of my computers with PopOS! and have never looked back. The transition was rough ( I basically gave up gaming to learn programming) but I have no regrets, and this post just validates that decision. Micro$ cannot and should not ever be trusted.

I do miss Paint.NET though.

Have you tried running Paint.NET under WINE?

I did actually, but it gave a massive amount of errors so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ it seems like I don’t miss it that much.
