linux has a gorillion problems as a desktop OS and the only REALLY good reasons for switching started with like Windows 10 or so (maybe 8.x) which started sending obscene amounts of telemetry data (read: MS is checking your loli hentai and would cheerfully hand over that data if you lived in a country where loli isn't legal)
also windows 11's interface blows (no modern Linux DE is better though, they all went to shit around when GTK3 started to get pushed, and my conspiracy theory is that GNOME 3 was a deliberate effort to ensure that the "year of the Linux Desktop" never happened, because just before that point, it was very easy to suggest ordinary people try Linux, and even if they didn't love it or needed Windows, they'd at least like it back in the GNOME 2 days)

the most recent thing with Recall is the one thing that is hyper-pushing me towards Linux as a daily driver main OS for the first time in like 14 years
I don't want everything I do and see on the computer to be automatically categorized in a way that is absolutely a way to generate evidence against someone

it's just bleak
maybe your nation doesn't care about what you're doing if you aren't making bombs/drugs/photo cp (and really, it probably doesn't care!) but you can't depend on that and everything has hyper-veered into "powerful corporations now know more about you than you could possibly remember and can wield that as leverage at any time"
