I personally have no interest for Microsoft Linux. I dont care for those spying/data hoarding/always online operating systems of theirs .

Probably they will inject their “CBL” with those nice features too . I dont say Linux is perfect ,but its a heck of a lot better.

The article is rather clear on that... if you read the whole article.

Now that's a proper use of clickbait! Not like a lot of the other garbage out there.

TIL: There's a Rust lint out there, for when/if I ever actually start working on a Rust project.
