    This was the main reason I switched to Linux… even if this is implemented I have no desire to go back to Windows, but I might recommend MacBooks less to my less techie friends.

      Apparently, Microsoft is allowing you to use your Google Gmail account to sign in to Edge instead of a Microsoft account, and they are “considering” removing the forced Microsoft account requirement when signing into Windows 11 to set up the computer to begin with.

      Big fucking whoop, but still.

          I offered you to read the article because this is what people do. And if you don’t want to read the article, don’t ask other people to chew the information up for you.

        I’m not going to click some random link posted by someone who doesn’t even bother to utilize the description field when posting.
