# I hate Microsoft

Yep, like a lot of people I hate Microsoft so I'll try to be a little specific.

First of all, the only reason I still have Windows on my desktop is for gaming reasons and only that, most of what I do happens on GNU+Linux on my laptop which is not powerfull to play something more advanced than OSRS. I hadn't played on that desktop for a very long time because I no longer had a GPU but I found a very, very old GT240 at my parent's house to put in there so I started using it again... It was my first use of Windows in about two years and it was a pain!
I discovered that back in 2018 I tried to prevent MS from spying on me by disabling every telemetry I could... so that was a mistake because now Windows just refuses to update. I know it was my fault but it feels so wrong that if I don't want my pc to send MS data about what I do on my computer I also have to give up having Windows updates.
All this was so I could play Minecraft with my SO. I had not played Minecraft in many years, Mojang had not been bought by MS last time I played. I was so angry when I learnt about the bedrock edition and that I had to buy it even though I already had the java edition (I don't intend to play the bedrock edition but the fact that you have to pay twice to have both is infuriating to me). The worst part is that by the end of the year if I want to continue playing I have to use a MS account with Minecraft instead of my Mojang account and that also pisses my off very much.

Unfortunately these are not the only reasons I hate MS, they were just new reasons that added to the others.
