I’ve never actually seen an ad in Windows… Like, literally ever. The worst I’ve seen is Windows trying to trick me into making edge my default browser.
If I believed all the articles on Lemmy, every part of the OS now has embedded ads, and the OS itself is recording everything I ever do against my will and without my knowledge.
Yup, I agree. That’s a really big “just”, though. I’d rather watch a poorly edited video that’s honest, than a high end video that glosses over major defects and difficiencies. I mean, let’s call it what it is, Marques makes ads.
