    In Linux you can actually (un)install features you want (or don’t want) without the whole system breaking.

    Also: Why the hell does Microsoft Edge run in the background all of the time?!

      Edge runs in the background so it opens faster when you click a link somewhere. Chrome and more recently Firefox do the same.

        Ok yeah, good point. Firefox has never done that to me, but maybe it’s different on Linux, I don’t know. But thanks!

          Yeah, I don’t think neither Firefox nor Chrome do that on Linux

            That actually brings me to my next point: Why does Windows allow Kernel-Level Programs?! Like, I do not trust Vanguard! (And I don’t understand why people do…)
