TLDR:
Windows 11 v24H2 and beyond will have Recall installed on every system. Attempting to remove Recall will now break some file explorer features such as tabs.

Something that has no important data on it whatsoever is absolutely working just fine, and yeah, I had a slip of the tongue, but you bringing it up is a sign you’re out of arguing points, so here’s one. Lemmy is absolutely falling victim to what reddit fell to, echo chambers. Linux is Lemmy’s favorite operating system, and it’s users will defend it to the death and not reason beyond that veil.
I actually can prove this, go ahead, simply try and come up with a sincere advantage windows has over Linux, market superiority, user familiarity and accessibility, software compatibility, I bet you cant without saying “there are no advantages” or adding a “but”
That’s my problem with Lemmy and Linux, I don’t even like windows myself but you’re all such fanboys that you make the prospect of Linux just insufferable because of how you can’t have an unbiased discussion about the different OS’.
Buddy, you have a genuine problem in that you’re refusing security updates. Never mind the importance of your data, a system that’s not receiving patches can become part of a bot net using your bandwidth to perform DDoS attacks, it can be used as a springboard to infect other systems, and it can be used to spy on you (if not directly via hardware sensors, MAC spoofing based MITM is a thing), it can lead to hardware level compromises (by infecting the BIOS), it can be used as a proxy for illegal activity, and probably some other stuff I’m not thinking of right now.
If you want to update to Windows 11, I fully accept that as a valid choice.
This is not a Linux vs Windows issue. This is “I don’t like what Windows has become in 11 … and I will not be getting security updates on Windows 10 soon.” So, your valid options to be responsible are A) get over it and update to 10, Microsoft owns Windows, you do what they do if you want to run Windows, B) install Linux, C) buy a Mac and host it on that, D) install FreeBSD and host it on that, E) write your own operating system, F) find some other niche operating system.
So when I suggest “just install Linux and fix your problem” it’s not fan-boy-ism; it’s accepting the reality that what you’re doing is a bad idea and you shouldn’t do it.
