just searched youtube for “ windows 11 without microsoft account”.
there are thousands of videos still up.
people will just believe anything that fits their worldview and not check anything out….
It's disheartening, really. I fully sympathize with the efforts of software freedom and independent media platforms, but it's just so annoying how people with "my" world view are just like all other people as well – we believe what we want to believe and only question what goes against our beliefs.
I'm not saying I'm better, but I just hate it in general.
Yep, even on the side of the right ideas, half the people still got there via the same wrong methods that the people on the wrong side use. They just coincidentally happened to land on the right side instead. It is quite disheartening, exactly
