    Windows 11 takes your money, gives you ads, sells your information and ignores your bug reports and feature requests

    KDE is free, ad-free and open to contribution

    I think we have a clear winner here

      I found since people are used to app stores, I’ve had a much easier time convincing people to try out Linux. My mom even said that she always wished her windows PC had a proper app store.

        I think it’s still important to explain the key difference between an “app store” and a package repository: the latter isn’t a “store” because everything is free.
