Is this going to be the new “Eww, you’re on Android” thing? Mac and Linux users not gonna talk to people purely because they use Windows, now.

At least in this scenario it would be because of something substantial, rather than some bullshit about colors.

Relevant quote from the article:

Beaumont’s advice is simple, but a sobering indictment of the state of affairs.

“I would recommend that if you’re talking to somebody about something sensitive who is using a Windows PC, that in the future you check if they have Recall enabled first.”

I moved over to Pop a couple days ago and couldn’t be happier. My games play faster and my printer is faster too for some reason.
