Game ad notification on Windows...

UnPassive@lemmy.world to Linux@lemmy.ml – 912 points –

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

Why not posting this on a windows community? Or is OP expecting those sweet linux circlejerky replies?

I only see this community when I'm browsing all and it feels like a good chunk of these posts aren't actually about Linux - they're about how Windows is bad

"Check out this thing I had to go out of my way to find"

I HAVE to use Windows (I asked them to let me install Arch on my own machine and the security analysts said no, can you believe it? Don't they know how tech savvy I am?!?)

What gave it away? Lol

It was literally a notification; made a sound and everything. Didn't go out of my way to see it. I'm not used to ads in my operating system so it was jarring. Surprised people accept it as normal
