   Hundreds of thousands of Computers won't be able to upgrade to Windows 11, but that shouldn't make them eWaste.

   Kudos to the @kde team for this amazing initiative!

     @thechildofroth @kde I personally have never understood the hate for systemd. I think people are upset about feature creep, but honestly, I personally can't get excited or angry about a service manager.

     @jmaris @kde I followed this through to distrochooser and took their survey out of interest (happy with defiantly already, really).

     Why is systemd seemingly a bone of contention/ showstopper for some people? (What even is systemd?)

     @jmaris @kde My favorite feature in Windows 11 is that it makes users discard perfectly good computers I snap up and run Linux on. 10 out of 10 stars for that feature.

     @tivasyk I got "outdated" enterprise grade network gear. I've never had such rock solid internet and LAN in my life. 980 megabits a sec from my bedroom to my server in the basement. I can work with files at that speed while others are streaming from it cause I now have link aggregation. I got my security risky roommates quarentined to their own vlan. Remote playing my bedroom PS5 using the PS4 in the livingroom feels about as lag free as playing at the PS5.
     I got the stack for cheap AF
