If Ms keeps pushing copilot, I know I’m going to have to seriously considering moving to some form of linux…
Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I completely agree with you—Microsoft’s handling of information raises a lot of concerns, and their push with Copilot only adds to it. Linux is a solid choice for maintaining more control and privacy. I personally use MX Linux and Kubuntu as well—they’re both excellent options. MX Linux is perfect for older machines since it’s a lightweight OS, while Kubuntu works wonderfully on newer models. It’s good to see more people considering alternatives like Linux—it’s definitely a step toward reclaiming control over how we use technology. Thanks for your input! I hope you have a great day. 😎
Thanks for the rec’s. Always good to know what works for others…
You’re welcome! 😎
