Why are distro communities turning linux more and more into Windows and Mac OS clones?

This is why I use Arch.

Counterpoint; it's really none of their business to know how often I click on something, and neither do I want them to have the ability to figure that out either because there is no reason to assume that those are the only data points they can get their grubby hands on.

If there is no reasonable way for me to differentiate between spying and telemetry, I rather wish they couldn't do either.
