Lol I'm just going to take a shot in the dark and guess you're one of those Linux users who autistically screech how evil Microsoft is for collecting basic diagnostics data like every other company in the world, but own a smartphone, use google services that collect a mountain of actual personal information compared to Microsoft's mole hill of diagnostics information only, and the smartphone is most likely android, owned and developed by Google. Guessing by your username, I'm pretty confident I was right about the smartphone.
No way man, I'm way worse. I've been one of those even more obnoxious UNIX users who found Microsoft products to be interesting curiosities but then never understood exactly how some of their shittier stuff ever caught on so sensationally. Then, throughout the years, Microsoft has demonstrated it's disdain for all but profits... I still bought their junk when it looked interesting, useful, or amusing.
Like XP: I liked XP well enough. I thought that they kind of finally made something at least generally useful and had perhaps changed their ways. Once Vista hit the scene, I promised to excise that cancer from my business and my home.
Stupid fucking google, stealing my name... I should sue their faggot asses. But yeah, I do use stupid android just because I don't like Apple iOS.

Ooh, I need to procure some spare hardware to play with these!
I like the 'longevity' section on lineageos's site with the rotating phone swastika!
