And let’s not even mention the oppression of culture. We never got to choose our native language.

on The fact that you can’t run through Windows setup w/o internet and an online account is absolute bullshit in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 26 Aug 2026
Using Windows for me is a cumulation of annoying little things that becomes too big to ignore. Another thing you can add on that list is fiddling with keyboard layouts if you don’t use the default US one. And be sure to delete them all except the one you want to use, even the sub layouts, because accidentally hitting a key combo could switch it back to the default US one.
It’s a specific pet peeve that I have against Windows. I’ve had so many calls (I do tech support) from people that had their computer suddenly not making the characters they wanted, sometimes only in specific programs, just to discover that they reverted to the default layout by hitting Win + spacebar at some point.

Now that you mention it, I have been doing tech support for multiple years and yeah, sometimes I just have to read them the message on the screen.
