    At what point do OEMs just say actually nah, I’m tired of you making our laptops frustrating to use?

    You’re under the impression that most people care about the horrible parts of windows?

      I think they do.

      Enough to do much about it, other than maybe buy a MacBook if they have money to burn? Nah.

      But enough to use their PC less and try to do as much as possible on their phone/iPad? Honestly, yeah, I think so.

      I hear normies complaining about stuff in Windows all the time. It’s just when you go “well you could…” they turn off and don’t want to do anything about it, because to them you may as well be giving them advice on how they can hack their washing machine to wash clothes faster. It’s just an appliance.

        Is your point that you think laptop and desktop makers could increase sales by ditching windows? That feels like suicide to me and I am a Linux lover. At what point do they do that is what you asked. When they’re desperate enough to take a risk, if ever, would be my guess
