    Imagine paying for an OS to have ads in it. 🐃💩

    Thankfully we have Linux/BSD

    It doesn’t matter that you can disable it, this stuff shouldn’t be in the OS in the first place

      Seriously. I paid for the computer, it should not be constantly begging and nagging to subscribe to my own hardware. Sympathies to people unable to get out, but I was done a long time ago.

      Yeah, it really sux that Ububtu made this acceptable and Windows copied them.

      You’ll downvote me, but it’s true. They did it first with fucking Amazon ads over a decade ago.

        Yes, they did it first, but they removed it because it wasn’t acceptable and everyone hated it
