Please tell me Microsoft has enough sense not to lock down their system to where third party apps are cumbersome to install.

Even Apple doesn't make third party programs hard to install on a Mac.

I'm afraid of leaving Windows because then I'd have to use systemd.

Leaving Windows is
kind of difficult you know
old habits die hard

@OP A haiku for you.

these cocksuckers plan to reduce your PC to the role of a terminal accessing a mainframe circa 1985, with all this cloud bullshit. windows will require an internet connection to be operated

@previous (Million Muffin March)
Is that true? Seems a little far-fetch despite being today.

@OP
Ubuntu is quite nice. I mainly use Android and Ubuntu now so I'm already in a post Windows world.

I remember the days when leaving Windows was fraught with peril but now as more and more stuff either is cross-platform or moves to mainframes accessed over the Internet (or "the cloud"), OS matters less than ever before. Unless you're a hardcore gamer you won't miss Windows at all.
