As far as the performance issues go, I've experienced a lot of those when I first upgraded from 10 to 11. After reinstalling though, the performance has been amazing.

I hate all of the constant advertising of MS products and services, especially in the case of Edge, because so many of those products are genuinely amazing, and people won't give them a chance because it's shoved down their throats.

Any sources for further reading/watching?

The fact that an insane number of sites use it makes it a big deal. If it dies, there will be plenty of dead links

There are many things I like about F-Droid, but its UI is awful for a lay person

Win 11 has as many wins as blunders

Maybe they'll replace ads on sites that let them and block them on other sites? Who knows

Where did I say "oh well, nothing we can do?" You're literally tying random arguments to my name.

Nobody here made the argument that what is legal is exactly what is fair. Nobody here made the argument that Nintendo being overly litigious is a good thing. The only argument made is that copyright law is flawed because companies abuse it and that lawmakers need to fix it.

I doubt that the Switch 2 needs emulation as it's very likely to be the successor to the Tegra X1

He never said that creating an emulator was illegal. He said that Nintendo is legally in the clear to do what they did. In Yuzu's case, Nintendo sued and both parties settled, and they reached an "agreement" with Ryujinx to take down its emulator.

As far as I'm aware, the Yuzu case isn't settled law as it calls into question whether the use of dumped keys to "bypass" copy protections is legal under the DMCA. This question isn't about emulation, even if it's a step required for emulation to be possible.

Since there are many issues with copyright law right now, corporations have a free pass to bully people in a multitude of ways, and the Yuzu lawsuit and Ryujinx "agreement" are just new ways of doing the same thing. All OP is saying is that lawmakers need to re-create copyright and IP laws to make them more fair and make sense so that content creators and/or homebrew devs and/or fangame creators and/or emulator devs can do their work with a far less shaky legal foundation.

I didn't know that Secret Service was mandatory for former US Presidents.

Windows is an option

Lobbying is a good concept corrupted by greed, as are many things in the US.
