This is standard business tactics.
Do not fall for it.
An absurd change followed by rolling it back to an “acceptable” version that is still worse than their original position prior to the initial announcement.
This is a psychological manipulation.
And more to the point it ignores the issue of their violation of trust and consistency.
This is still precedent, they still showed their hand.
They want to have “passive income” at your expense.
Learn Godot.

On one hand it’s sad to see all these people laid off for Asus’s failures.
But on the other hand I saw this coming miles away. You can’t just sell mobos that kill expensive processors, and provide a warranty breaking solution. (which didn’t work btw) And then be surprised that people are upset with you for basically trapping them with losses and a broken product.
Asus did this to themselves, and it’s a shame their employees take the hit for what was clearly a failure in management.
Maybe in a server environment it may be. But even in my home server setup, arch just works.
I even took the easy way out with archinstall for both.
I know that’s not very “I use arch btw” of me, but my server’s hardware literally died before my arch install did. And then I just dropped it into new hardware and it just worked.
I’ve been running that server for 2 years, and my Desktop for less than 1 on raw arch. I used to use Manjaro but I switched to Arch because Manjaro’s packages were always annoyingly neglected. The amount of Times I had to circumvent Manjaro’s repositories to install the latest discord was rediculous. But even with Manjaro, my install never bricked.
I’ve had Debian based installs like Ubuntu and Pop Os all brick before. Trying to do Qemu or edit some grub options and poof broken.
Don’t know why, double, triple checked what the guide said.
But it still broke. And I think that’s mostly because Unlike arch, most user friendly distros assume the user either isnt going to use these power user features or can just use online guides.
Problem is online guides frequently go out of date.
The arch wiki is always pretty consistently up to date enough not to cause issues. That random no-name website article is not.
Pop_OS - Fragile Beginner Distro, this is fine to use so long as you’re not a power user, but you’re using Linux so…
Manjaro - Maintain your damn repos, why is it whenever discord updates, the repo is so far out of date I literally have to circumvent it and install it through some hacky bullshit?
Ubuntu - Snap? More like Thanos Snapd off my damn drive thank you very much.
Fedora - just overrated, nothing terribly against it, just don’t think it’s all it’s cracked up to be. It’s just a RHEL adjacent Distro.
Linux Mint - aside from Debian edition, its pretty overrated. It’s easy compatible Ubuntu. It’s not super Ubuntu or anything.

TSMC doesn’t make everything.
There are morally abhorrent chip manufacturers in South Korea and Japan as well.

Google broke on Firefox for a while a day ago for me. Went to some other search engine.
Jumping from social media is hard.
Jumping from applications is not.
teamspeak became Skype which became discord.
And many of us did leave Reddit. I didn’t even leave because I cared about the protests or what Reddit was doing. I left because many posts were deleted, people left, subreddits became abandoned.
Lemmy became better than Reddit basically overnight.
The likelihood that windows doesn’t have a back door for the US government is irrelevant.
No windows user can guarantee every part of their OS is clean.
Linux users have the advantage of Open Source.
If you run Linux, you can audit the code. Can’t do that for windows.
