    My brother got a new laptop and was interested in Linux, so I offered to help him set up a dual boot

    He didn’t want to connect a Microsoft account, so we tried to make a local one

    After 15 minutes, he said “to hell with Windows” and he’s been a Linux main ever since XD

      I got my laptop about 4 years ago and the first year I stuck with the windows it came with. Then I started trying out dual booting for 2 years with more and more just not bothering with booting windows at all. Until a windows update fucked up my bootloader and also literally deleted my linux partition. Immediately nuked any traces of windows off the disk and now it runs in a VM in case I need to use an app that does not like WINE
