Mainstream video streaming sites like Amazon Prime are often quite fussy about web browsers

It's weird. They pester me to do things like update, use a specific browser, use Windows, turn on DRM, etc.

I'm starting to think that DVDs were easier than this!

In general I find myself moving away from big tech to be honest. They seem to be quite bossy and... there are other options available that don't involve me doing things for them all the time.

Yeah I'm on Linux again now.

I was happily on Windows during the 7 and 8.1 days but I really can't stand 10 or 11. I'd rather use Vista.

Yeah, I tried using windows 10/11 recently and it almost drove me insane.

I'm so used to the speed at which it takes to do anything on linux I can't really go back.

They seem so bloated and bossy.

Like a big fat Karen. XD

Linux is easygoing and lean! It only has what it needs to work and not loads of bloatware!

Install google chrome for streaming sites. Just use multiple browsers, to keep high privacy invading tracking sites like Facebook, TikTok, twitter, Reddit, Netflix, etc and another browser for incels, forums and image boards.
