One drive crashes every computer I work on. I thought it was just a problem with the computer I was using at the time, but my computer got upgraded to another, and it stopped for awhile and then the computer started crashing again.
Then I moved offices, and my OneDrive seems to have infected the new one, since as soon as I started using it, the other person who uses it said it started crashing. And then it started crashing for me. And the other person figured out if he closes One Drive right at startup, there are no problems. I did the same, and no problems. But the second the computer automatically starts One Drive (like if I try to open anything from TEAMS), the whole computer crashes.
One Drive is a goddamn plague.
Windows is the virus
Debian pleases the Omnissiah far more than Windows
They are not mutually exclusive. You can point OneDrive at any folder.
Am I the only person in the world that managed to delete the shit off of windows that I didn't want and never have it come back?
Even after updates?
Lots of people removed Windows without it coming back
No, the rest of us just stopped responding to these threads. You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it think.
The kinds of people who repost this meme over and over again, are the kinds of people who don't do updates, and the reason why updates are automatic by default on Windows. They don't know nor care to know what is going on with their os, they just have an idea of what they expect will happen, and when something different happens, they complain and post memes about it.
Of course, not every single person is like that, there are and always will be exceptions
The hard truth is that most people don't know and don't care what's running on their computer until it gets in their way.
Some of us have to do tech support for people stuck in these situations. I don't personally have problems with Onedrive but I'm also the type who is able to figure out installing Windows without a Microsoft account.
This is such a pile of cheap elitism. So, the very need to figure out how to remove what you didn't ask for does not bother your club of computer geniuses?
I will point out that's not what the OP is about.
It's literally complaining for the sake of complaining.
Yeah. Sure. OneDrive suddenly starting to do devious shit without any request of user confirmation or warning definitely did not happen to anybody, it is just miserable unqualified people trying to feel good about themselves by complaining about nonexistent issues
You know what? That "rest of you" does a good thing by having "stopped responding to these threads". Do keep this noble tradition
No, same thing here.
OneDrive is a big part of why I finally made the switch.
For me, it's going to be the AI injected into the body without consent.

For me it was Windows 7
Then they came out with Metro Ui so I went back
Then they got rid of it so I went back to Linux
In the 90s I didn’t really have a main one

It's becoming more and more a subscription services hub and ad platform.
By now it's a sloperating system full of slopvertisement and slopware
sloperating system
Also, with the foisted AI integration, this is just a brilliant way to describe things right now.

As a Linux person forced to use OneDrive at work, OneDrive sucks in almost every capacity. Why would I pay MS for a service that fails at its core objectives?

Fool, it's not "your" computer, it's Microsoft's. You shall use it the way they deem best for you.
Sounds just like Apple.
It's simply what allows a web browser to run so it can act as an OS.
Shout out to Kera desktop
then when you actually want to upload to onedrive it doesn't work because it died because it can't handle the many tiny files in your .venv folder
Alternatively it's already full because steam workshop mods obviously need to be backed up in my personal cloud

One drive is really cheaper than Google one in many countries.
Also don't complain about having off-site backups, you will cry when you need them.
And certainly having one drive is better for your average non backup architecture oriented user than having no backup or worst, setting it up themselves to later find they never did it correctly
