It’s like Microsoft is advertising for Linux at this point, lol.

“KB5094126 patched 208 security vulnerabilities on June 9, but the update has triggered Recycle Bin display glitches, BitLocker lockouts on enterprise hardware, OneDrive failures, and system freezes, with the first fix not expected until July 14.”

    As a longtime Linux-only user, I love how M$ is driving people over to a new OS. But, with increased publicity and adoption makes it a growing target for hackers.

        Odds are, like most things on Linux, there will be an option for a dumbed down distro or a reasonable one. Things like Ubuntu, grasping for mass appeal, will get dumber. Arch, for example, likely won’t.

          My middle son, who is non-technical but anti-microsoft, runs Fedora 44 (same as I do actually)

          He actually really prefers it… :)
