I use Linux at home but my work computer uses windows. Work just bought me a new laptop with windows 11 pre-installed and I got ads to upgrade to a new "AI capable computer" on the login screen. This computer is maybe 3 months old and there are already ads telling me I need to get a new one.

I like KDE and xfce. My hardware is pretty old so I appreciate how light xfce is, but I like KDE connect too.

They are starting to test opt-out telemetry and from what I read, it sounded pretty invasive. I'm no tech genius though so I'd check the links in that other comment.

I started on mint a couple months ago and so far I've tried as many distros as I could find. I liked manjaro but then found out about their controversies so I'm currently on endeavour os. Half of the fun for me has been experimenting with different desktops and whatnot, which has gotten me back into computer stuff.
