Have to use Windows for work (I've asked), the ads have been getting worse and worse on my work laptop. Today got a game ad notification... That's clearly too far, right? Like I have to clear notifications, so I have to see it
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

There are ads in Windows?
Yes they are going to fill windows with ads as far as I've understood correctly
yep, iirc it started in windows 8 where they would suggest third party apps directly in your app menu back in 2013
I use Windows exclusively and have never seen a single ad.
Depends on the license you have. Also they are termed as suggestions/recommendations.
Right, I don't have a licence :)
It looks like ads from the Xbox app (could be wrong)
