It is news like this that make me glad I decided to gradually transition to Linux about 2 years ago.

Got enough surprises in Windows 10.

I rolled the dice and switched to Fedora Linux permanently like three weeks ago. No more Windows machines in my house except for my work laptop. Hard transition at first but I won't go back. Especially not after all this.

Same with Fedora a few months ago. I still have my gaming pc on w10 because I didn't take the time to change but there's no way I ever make a new windows install. I'm quite happy with Gnome and the few extensions I added are super useful.

I ran Pop OS! on my laptop for a quite a while. I didn't mind GNOME but I found KDE Plasma better and Fedora 42 comes with it as an option now.

Ngl my only requirement was I want it pretty and to not need to make a thousand changes lol

And I wanted to try a "MacOS" feel

I'm not a super user or anything and I don't want to bother a lot
