holy shit can we see an actual meme on this instance?

fair but the original post is about microsoft controlling something in the OS

if you refer to the hardware as “PC” then you are wrong, the OS utilizes the hardware and uses it. it cannot destroy it, and even if it could by using a lot of resources, “controlling” is the wrong word here. Microsoft owns the OS, not your computer and/or its hardware

I used to use it but then I just downloaded aria2 (what motrix is using) and it’s as fast as motrix with a little bit of configuration. aria2 supports both direct downloads and magnet links, it’s a command line tool though

I wouldn’t risk it personally. If you want to de-google your phone you should probably unlock the bootloader (you’ll lose all data) and flash a custom rom

Because you can install any apk you want so you can get apps from github/f-droid. on ios to sideload you need to do some stuff with itunes iirc
