No subscriptions, thank you. I straight away turn down even free trial periods even if they are offered as a compensation for a CS ticket.
And when Strava automatically set a bunch of users to Premium for a while, hence showing a "paid user" icon for those users (nice marketing trick though), I removed my account.
No.Subsciptions.
Whoa, you sound exactly like an improved version of me!
Where do you get .wav files these days??
I gave Linux Mint a try last week when I received the news about the obligatory MS account for W11. Not that I'll "upgrade" to W11 but anyway.
Very smooth installation experience. The OS and software like Steam, Brave, Nvidia drivers and some audio & video stuff installed through the package control in no time. I could actually work with it.
Half of my game library is made only for W though. Or the small blocker things like GTA V that works well in Mint in story mode, the Battleye thing won't start of course, so expect no GTA Online in Mint either.
I think I'll keep Linux Mint and Windows under dual boot and use Windows only when necessary. Or run W10 in a virtual box in Mint 😎.
Looks like death rates are up though.
