I am currently using a legitimate copy of Windows 11, on the latest version. Just started getting this message after the latest update.
Considering I already have Linux and Mac as alternatives, if they actually pull my license they will just lose a lifelong customer. Their business decisions truly boggle the mind…

I used to run windows strictly for gaming. Over a year ago, I leapt from the flaming dumpster fire that is Microsoft, and I’ve never once wished that I hadn’t. Everything I need works on Linux.
99% of what I do is on Linux, I have one Windows partition I occasionally boot into to play games, it is and will remain Win10.
I don’t even want windows on raw metal, so I have a virtual machine for work stuff
@KazuchijouNo I had a virtual machine with GPU pass through that I was using for gaming but it got broken in the upgrade from Ubuntu 22.04 to 24.04, it seems the UEFI bios provided in 24.04 does not work with GPU pass through, and I’ve yet to grab one off an OS where it works to replace it. So for now I’m dual-booting. Yea I agree, not all that comfortable with bare metal but Windows doesn’t seem to want to recognize ext4 so there is some security by accident there.

Why do people avoid using the word Microsoft? It’s annoying when you use filters and people just circumvent them.
Update your filters, bro. M$ is used for decades.
Why though? What is the purpose of avoiding the filters? Are there shadow-bans based on keywords on Lemmy? There might be something I’m missing, but I only see this as a way to inconvenience people who use filters.
Honestly, I think it all leads back to the original character limit of Twitter. It’s referencing that Microsoft is money-grubbing and power-hungry.
That makes sense, thanks!
Are you asking why people use abbreviations? It’s to save time. Nobody is considering your filters when they abbreviate stuff. As inconsiderate as that is.
Obligatory fuck Microsoft. Sorry, M$. Time is valuable.
If you’re browsing Lemmy, you’ve got plenty of time to type an entire word. But, this discussion is going absolutely nowhere, so I’ll stop responding.
