If you upgraded to 11 you're a complete moron. They literally took away the volume mixer to control the volume for each individual program and had to release an update to appease their retard fanboys. 10 has its own issues with privacy and switches being turned back on 'mysteriously' but at least the functionality wasn't a step backwards.
The 'cloud' is the anti-Future: It's the return of 1960 "Time-Sharing", before there were "Personal Computers". The only things lacking are punch-cards and big reels of magnetic tape.
The real 'future' is exactly the way it was in 1960. Your dumb terminal running rented software, your 'data' held hostage for monthly ransom payments to some GloboHomo conglomerate. The only 'new features' are more:
Nothing on the android "OS" belongs to the 'user'.
Smartphone = Telescreen
I have an sd card, so I use it.
in retrospect, those who pushed the cloud in the early days were almost certainly CIA controlled.
It was around 2010, heavily pushed by apple, and the term "cloud" was fairly new. Really it just meant someone else's hard drive over a network.
That was made very clear in computer science classes. To the point where it's been made difficult to self host.
It predates 2010 by at least a decade.
The term comes from these kind of diagrams where a cloud represents "external services"
It's the default on Window 11, btw, that "my documents" is not on your C drive but on your synced Microsoft OneDrive account.
since 1996
sorely missed out on a lot of these "upgrades" apparently.
I love Linux. It's amazing to turn on your computer and have it only do things when you ask it to.

I didn't upgrade, my 8 year old HP went kaput and I bought a new HP.
I set OneDrive to not sync and then made a "my documents" folder on the C drive.
DDG is useless. The only one worth using is Yandex.
And that's why anything I back up online is backed up in multiple places and important stuff is also burnt to disc.
"Cloud" = Muh Beep-Boop Futurez!!
