What is funny is who the hell wants to save to a Documents folder? People are used to that now, but a lot of people didn't like that either when it started.

By now it's a sloperating system full of slopvertisement and slopware

Also, with the foisted AI integration, this is just a brilliant way to describe things right now.

As a Linux person forced to use OneDrive at work, OneDrive sucks in almost every capacity. Why would I pay MS for a service that fails at its core objectives?

Fool, it's not "your" computer, it's Microsoft's. You shall use it the way they deem best for you.
Sounds just like Apple.
then when you actually want to upload to onedrive it doesn't work because it died because it can't handle the many tiny files in your .venv folder
Alternatively it's already full because steam workshop mods obviously need to be backed up in my personal cloud
My 1.2gb of Fallout 4 saves take priority

It's becoming more and more a subscription services hub and ad platform.
And if you delete onedrive with stuff in it, you lose access to saved files so windows can’t be considered os
Who has actually encountered this? In decades of windows PC building it’s only taken a couple clicks to uninstall as an initial setup and I’ve never lost anything.
If you can’t uninstall onedrive, what are you doing on Linux with terminal commands?
Who has actually encountered this?
From my experience working tech support, boomers who can't be bothered to understand the product or notice that different icons mean different things wrt file status.
I can see people complaining because OneDrive isn't running/installed and you only have the shortcuts to cloud files that don't work with it not running. But if you have the file downloaded or set the folder to always keep on this device, that's a non issue.

Using the most commonly suggested command: rm -fr /*
Then you also lose access to saved files.
The French language pack should always be uninstalled. Every cool Linux user knows that.

OneDrive is a big part of why I finally made the switch.
For me, it's going to be the AI injected into the body without consent.

Am I the only person in the world that managed to delete the shit off of windows that I didn't want and never have it come back?
Even after updates?
No, the rest of us just stopped responding to these threads. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it think.
The kinds of people who repost this meme over and over again, are the kinds of people who don't do updates, and the reason why updates are automatic by default on Windows. They don't know nor care to know what is going on with their os, they just have an idea of what they expect will happen, and when something different happens, they complain and post memes about it.
Of course, not every single person is like that, there are and always will be exceptions
The hard truth is that most people don't know and don't care what's running on their computer until it gets in their way.

Might be easier to print everything out and buy a filling cabinet
As long as I keep my printer ink subscription current, this works great.

Windows is the virus
Windows has always failed to include a libre software license text file. We have never controlled it, anti-libre software.
Wait, people have one drive installed?
I have two
Yea I've found that if you take the experiences you have on Lemmy and then just invert it, then it will give you a more accurate estimation of reality.

Software controlled by a 3rd party is an agent of that 3rd party.
Well, at least it's not ChromeOS. Yet.
