It really blows my mind that somehow most popular services/software is at state worse than 10-15 years ago, what the fuck happened? This shit is what is making me move to other interests/hobbies than technology-related stuff.
I have Windows 10, so things may be different for 11 or whatever version you're on, but can't you just uninstall OneDrive without specifically closing it? I feel like that's what I did when it was default installed.
I recently bought a new computer (left the old one in my car by mistake, and the outdoor heat caused the plastic casing to expand) and moved all my old files over to the new one. Somehow, it ended up sticking a bunch of my files (Desktop, Documents, etc.) in my OneDrive (which was setup without any confirmation that I'd like to use it). I had to create a brand new profile that wasn't linked to a Microsoft account on my brand new computer and move everything over just to fix the issue.
I dont think thats new. I havent fucked with windows in like 3 years and I remember also being annoyed by that.
Microsoft isn't friendly with the whole forced SaaS thingy.
Anyone else getting the Game Pass add on lockscreen? Since last week my work computer tells me game pass is 1 Buck
Thank god I switched to Linux on my Desktop. And I also have a Macbook and I love it. I guess I can consider myself a Unix guy.
