OneDrive usurping my folders and data, siphoning it to their servers without my permission (just like a virus) is exactly why I switched to Linux. It’s such a breath of fresh air not feeling like every update is trying to monetize and enshittify my computer more
Snaps…
No one forces you to use Snaps or a distro that enforces Snaps.
You know whats cool? Office programs like excel and word have an ‘autosave toggle’, and you know what it does? “Please log into one drive to enable autosave”.
Thats right, you cant have a local autosave, you MUST be saving to one drive.
Cool, thanks, no.…
Ctrl+S
As annoying as it is being set this way by default, it’s easily avoided by right clicking on the user folder to move ( documents|desktop|video|etc) folders in File Explorer -> Properties -> Location tab.
Then either: Type in: C:\users[your current user]\Documents (or which ever user folder being changed)
Or
Click Move and browse to and select the local folder you want to use.
Click apply, it will ask you if you want to move contents from the original location as well.
Click yes, and now your user folders will be and will stay local. I haven’t had any issues since and have had that set for years on my windows PCs.
I want to save to onedrive, the one drive on my computer.
YOU HAVE A VIRUS!!

Switch to Linux, this shit doesn’t happen unless you set it up.
Some people have jobs.
Yeah, people who know how to use Linux
All of my personal machines are Linux. I’m forced to use Windows for work, like nearly all knowledge workers. You’ll find out about it when you grow up.
You’ll find out about it when you grow up.
I’m pretty sure, when I grew up, my aspirations were a bit higher than bragging about being a corporate drone.
When your value comes from the experience on your resume and not the stack of CompTIA certifications that you purchased while attending college, you get job offers that don’t come with a cubicle.
Yeah, they come with a spatula and a mop.
Tell me you’re divorced from the reality of a late-stage capitalist society without telling me, bro.
You’re right, there’s nothing that you can do but give in to the ghouls and take our allotted job, then spend our free time bitterly slinging shit at people who don’t follow in our rut.
There’s no change possible and anyone who pretends otherwise should be boo’d out of the conversation so we can all return to our miserable lives supporting the corporate boot with our collective necks.
How silly of me for aspiring to more. Thank you, wise young adult, for sharing the wisdom of your many hours looking at an-cap memes. I shall return to my spatula and mop, lest I upset the rest of the cattle.
Aspiring to more? Motherfucker, how do expect to do that waxing poetic about ruts and calling everyone who doesn’t buy your im14andthisisdeep rhetoric cattle? Young adult, indeed.
Here’s a hint: a stack of certifications is going is going to do you more good than some ego-trip pipe dream about single-handedly bucking the system. Save that Crimethinc reality-dodging bullshit for the rest of the trustsfarian lifestylists.
BTW, I’m a libertarian socialist and a member of the DSA and IWW. Ancaps can kiss my dick.
I just made linux on the company laptop a requirement for me working at the current company. They told me, that I would have to install and maintain it myself, so I have Arch Linux on my company laptop. I like it a lot more than Debian, which I had to use at the previous company.
I have never used windows in a work environment so far.
@django @ThePrimitive I once got a similar “you’ve opted out of company support” for ordering and installing additional RAM in my laptop from my department budget.
I lol’d in 8GB
