Five Win 11 computers no ads, never had to do anything special except pretending I'm from Europe.

If Linux users consider that hard then they truly aren't that great with computers...

"To make my computer do as I wish I simply need to lie about my country of residence. I am very technically adept."

TBF I do find that confusing. I'm used to human-readable conf files that persist across updates. But I can see how non-technical users might think understanding a collection of tricks is knowledge of their OS.
