I skimmed an article on enshittification yesterday
It mentioned Windows
Can something be enshittified if it was shit from the start?

So glad I switched to Linux a year ago, so much bs from Microsoft for exactly this and it was too much bs.

True every single day
The better time is always yesterday
I was planning on switching this year anyways but windows filling out a driveiI configured specifically to not get any data and then complaining about it led to an early switch.
Well to be fair I was using Debian on a second computer for years, but now my main one also runs Fedora
I got a countdown on my birthday app counting down to October 14. Cant wait
some days ago switched to void linux. It's awesome
What made you choose Void?
I wanted to try something new and different than debian, ubuntu or fedora, but at the same time do not try something like arch. A few days ago at work I've mounted a VM with void linux and start reading its handbook , and wow, the OS is very intuitive, if you combine its practicity along fish you got a very handy system, but again, I tried because I wanted to try something different, I really didn't try to satisfy a need. By the time, I should be able to tell if has the speed and performance to carry a selfhosted server; yesterday I started to migrate everything to void in my Lenovo Think Centre mini.
