Well, I got a windows laptop from work and didn't have a say about it. I don't do anything private on it. Does that really count?
It's totally fine. I'm a pro Linux guy myself. Well pro BSD really. It's just some of the technical topics we discuss on Lemmy, have some very unhelpful people pop out of the woodwork, and just say don't use windows at all. Without addressing the topic at hand. That's a little tiresome for me.
Imo it's not as tiring as the amount of people popping into Linux communities to tell Linux users they have to use windows...
