Et Facebook, et TikTok, et X ??
C'est étonnant qu'on s'attaque au moins vorace des milliardaires.
Je ne pense pas que #Facebook #TikTok et #X soient utilisés en classe à grande échelle ! Par contre, #Windows et #MSOffice sont imposés presque partout !
Quant à dire que #Microsoft est le moins vorace des #BigTech, ça reste à voir : il impose illégalement la "#taxeWindows" sur quasiment 100% des machines vendues en France et maintient son quasi monopole sur les suites bureautiques de façon déloyale.
why do the window designers in #russia keep creating such dangerous products?
#defenestration #defenestrate #putin #vladimirputin #windows #window #ukraine #ukrainewar #oligarch #oligarchs #sadoligarch #pravda #VyacheslavLeontyev #Leontyev #moscow
The easiest bypass is to install #Linux.
Or use a burner account for games and that's it.

Microsoft triples down and blocks even more Microsoft Account bypasses on Windows 11 — an online account is non-negotiable

If you're looking to avoid Windows 11, I suggest the newest version of Ubuntu. I just loaded it on my personal device, a Lenovo IdeaPad from 2020 that came with Win10 installed. The Lenovo was a pandemic purchase in May 2020. My personal device was an old laptop running Linux at the time. My work office machine was a Windows desktop and I didn't have space for it at home. I needed Windows for work in 2020. I don't need it now. Yay. I still use my personal computer a lot for work, and because my employer is bought into Microsoft hook-line-and-sinker I avoided using Linux for work although I use it a lot other places and have taught my kids to use it.
In the last few years the movement of Microsoft services to the web, plus availability of the Edge browser on Linux, is a game changer for me. I can now do my work on Edge for proprietary web app experiences when Microsoft utilities are unavoidable. There is also a Microsoft Teams clone which uses the web version of Teams and focuses only on Teams behaviors.
Frankly, everything for work seems to run faster than on my brand new Dell laptop running Windows 11 at my office. That's a pretty sad statement about Windows.
I should have made this change a year ago.

Which distribution of #Linux is the most similar to #Windows and works from scratch, without needing to use the command line? Does that even exist?
Context: I have mostly used Windows my whole life, but I'd like to use #win10eol to move some of my computers to Linux. I have tried Linux before (mostly #Ubuntu) and kept having problems, whether big or small, that wasted a lot of my time. I want to try again but do not have time to try dozens of Linux distributions. I know that if it works like Windows (i.e. same keyboard shortcuts, same settings), it will probably work for me. Any suggestions? 🙏

Le mardi 14 octobre 2025, Microsoft devait arrêter le support gratuit de Windows 10.
Sous la pression de la pétition de l’association HOP (Halte à l’obsolescence programmée), le délai de fin est prolongé d’un an, obligeant à de nouvelles contraintes.
Ne restons pas sous le joug de cette multinationale américaine et quittons ce système d’exploitation privateur !
Sans attendre, libérons nos ordinateurs !
L’April, l’association pour la promotion et la défense des logiciels libres, lance une opération Adieu Windows, bonjour le Libre !
Si vous aussi, vous voulez être délivré·es, ou libérer vos proches, si vous ne voulez pas ou n’avez pas les moyens de passer à Windows 11, alors les systèmes libres s’offrent à vous.
Vous pouvez en installer un de façon autonome, chez vous, mais si vous pensez avoir besoin d’aide, les bénévoles de très nombreuses associations se sont organisé·es pour vous recevoir et répondre à vos questions.
🐧 #WinBoat - Run #Windows Apps on #Linux with Seamless Integration #opensource #virtualization #Docker

wer möchte #windows programme (office, adobe, etc) unter #linux nutzen ohne sich gross mit dem setup einer virtualisierung herum zu schlagen? (windows wird trotzdem virtualisiert)
c't3003 zeigt wie es geht (gehen könnte)

Je viens de me rajouter sur la carte des parrains et marraines Linux, une initiative très sympa pour trouver quelqu'un près de chez soi pour aider à migrer vers une distribution Linux ou à la prendre en main.
Voici le lien de la carte: https://aidelinux.gogocarto.fr/
Pensez à vous y rajouter si vous avez du temps et des compétences à partager!
