This company needlessly forces hundreds of millions of users to throw away and replace perfectly fine hardware, just to not miss security updates (because in all other aspects WIndows 11 is just worse and more invading user privacy and freedom than Windows 10).
The negative impact on the environment, resource use, electronic waste etc is enormous, damaging and completely unnecessary.

However asshole at Microsoft is responsible for this should really rot in jail for life, because this is really a crime against humanity.

Especially in a time where US separatism does not care about international treaties and obligations at all.
Fuck off, US.

Unity seems to have been created based on the idea that Ubuntu might spread on mobile devices and tablets and some of the UI design choices may make sense there.

For the desktop it always has been a terrible choice, copying the flawed design concepts of GNOME where it the obsession with removing "clutter" makes it impossible to easily discover what can be done, forces users to memorize cryptic key combinations as if it is 1980ies again and makes it impossible to configure UI components the way the user wants (e.g. with icons or mini-apps in a panel) and rather forces down the same UI layout on all users, very much like Windows does.
Would love to see it go away.

How do you know this? They haven't even started implementing this?

I mean if they do, I agree, but could we not defer the judgements until we know?

If their implementation is open source, you do not have to. You can trust security experts inspecting the code.
If this is well done with proper end-to-end encryption and properl multi-hop routing, I do not see why you should not be able to trust the implementation.

This actually looks like a pretty good idea for a change.

sadly, was to be expected from a company which forces hundreds of millions of users to throw away and replace perfectly functional hardware.
That company is a malign cancer.

Next time I "upgrade" i will also get rid of Ubuntu on all my machines (6 of them).
Have not decided which one yet, but I think I have had it with Ubuntu.

that terrible package manager is still broken, struggles with home directories not on the root file system and sucks in many other ways.
Same with wayland: "modern" tech that is unable to do lots of things that are possible with X (related to remote desktops, running windows remotely etc).

The next update of my Ubuntu machines will actually a replacement with some other distro that does not shove all that enshittified limited or broken stuff down their users.

just don't use Microsoft Crap

Completely unnecessary data collection.
Fuck Microsoft.
There are now decent games under Linux as well and there is nothing else I ever needed that crap OS for.

Literally everything Google has ever done has seen massive enshitification.
A tax-avoiding, money sucking, hyper-bureaucratic global monster.

to even get a simple key remapping feature right.
To imagine that globally hospitals to nuclear plants und banks all rely on their software is chilling.

love it. Consumers are now so dumb you can get them to "subscribe" for any shit and any enshittification.

Any other form of public transport is more efficient, less costly and, a lot less stupid. The worst subway line still has a better driver to passenger ratio, better number of needed vehicles and thus needed motors and batteries to passenger ratio, better energy needed per passenger ratio.
So - why is this even happening? Why is utter stupidity so in in the US right now?

a completely new level of uselessness.
Seriously, a speaker-camera combo where you can make the camera wiggle - what does this have to do with a robot, at all?
