At this point I'm convinced that the new windows feature announcements are just ads for linux

I don't see any enshitiffication features and ads in Windows 11 that Lemmy and tech news are reporting. I wonder if it's because I'm in the EU.

They may have not implemented it yet. I see a lot of things reported that they are still testing.

Autodesk! All the others! Can you now, goddammit, for the sake of the mental health of your customers, start building your tools on platforms other than this crap? PLEASE? I mean I'm seriously considering building a parallel system running Linux for all my other office needs and just touch my Win-pc to run my CAD. I hope MS will continue in this way and ai-mercialize their OS more and more so hopefully the software providers will have enough at one point.

I've used FreeCAD for hobby 3d printing and plywood CNC projects. It seemed buggy, and the workflow seemed strange, but I've never used anything else, so it's fine, I guess, lol.

At that point you might as well just use a windows VM for CAD. With desktop integration you hardly have to notice you're using windows.

I guess the family computer will be entirely useless to everyone else in the house but me.

Now that Linux can run pretty much all the games I play on the PC I don't think I'm going to have much use for windows at home anymore
