Cool this looks alot better compared to the last guy's Windows Desktop I saw trying to mimic this why not just use the real stuff if your gonna theme plus Windows 11 is shit. Plus unlike the other guy which is virgin NPC your actually based and use Firefox instead of la shit Chrome. I like your wallpaper, accent color, and the OS your running good job you get a 10/10 from me. Anyways here is my Desktop nothing Special as well: Kinda ironic that you are shitting on someone for using Chrome when you use Brave, a browser with way worse of a track record. Edit: Brave is/was known for injecting promo codes into crypto websites to collect money ( source), replacing ads on websites with ones from itself ( source), tampering with suggested websites in the address bar for you guessed it, profit ( source) and a lot more. Yes, Brave is indeed a 1 to 1 copy of chrome that totally doesn't do shady shit with users private browser. Also theres this small fact about that Brave is literally more shady than Google

Reading this and then seeing that you use Brave makes so much sense. Not to dish Eggcorn, but you're ripping on what seems to be someone young and new to the Windows theming scene. Don't trash him when he literally admitted in his post that it was a "trash windows 7" recreation. I've been a diehard Firefox user all my life but I can see the appeal towards Chromium now that Firefox is banning addons like OldTwitter. Still, there are so so so many better Chromium forks than Brave. The amount of resources Chromium browsers use is insane. Reading through all your posts now makes it obvious your probably younger than Eggcorn. What are you saying I'm 21 years old dude! Yes I may be aggressive but I atleast can tell Google Chrome is spyware not in the malware sense but it sends all of your browsering history data and whatever you type back to Google Server's. I know how to use Virtual Machines and Linux I assume Eggcorn not to know what the hell these kind of things are hell I bet you he doesn't know what Windows 10 LTSC is just look at his profile he says he doesn't know his GPU or RAM like WTF so your saying I'm younger than him!?! Eggon has to probably has to be a minor between 14-17 years old and Eggon is okay with Google looking over his shoulder at all times there is a reason why I ditched Google they are too creepy also they keep trying to kill Adblockers let's not even mention that they tried to DRM the entire Open Web trying to restrict people's freedom on how they want to use the Web and Browse it that right there Google has too much power it can get dangerous they didn't fully commit to WEI but seriously why did they need that much backlash to stop doing it, I think they should have never made this at all! Yes there is a reason why I use Brave and Firefox as my browsers of choice they are free and open source after all look they may not be prefect but for someone trying to get away from Google and Google Chrome I think these browsers are a good choice besides we only have 2 Browser Engines on Windows Blink and Gecko there used to be alot more even Opera at one point prior to 2013 had its own browser engine called Persto and Microsoft did as well before 2019 they had 2 Trident (Internet Explorer) and EdgeHTML (Old/UWP Microsoft Edge) before they too gave up we now only have 2 truly unique browsers now Firefox and Safari which is based on WebKit which Google Chrome used to be based on Prior to 2013 you can look this up on Wikipedia speaking about of Safari the last known version of it on Windows was back in 2012 so I know my Tech compared to most people. Yeah Google Chrome is not Open Source it has proprietary blobs of code in there besides we all know Google collects user data and this is even worse if you use Google Chrome and makes it much worse if your signed into the browser syncing every part of data back to Google's servers. So I don't want to be called crazy just because. I thought everybody knew this buy now that Google is an advertisements firm it owns Doubleclick.net its apart of Google Ad Sense Google integrates these technologies and embeddeds them directly into Google Chrome the source of the browser that is like saying Microsoft Edge isn't spying on you when we all know it is just look at modern versions of Windows. Chromium with Google API's and Chrome work and look the same so i doubt that Google has much close source code. Your super wrong spyware.neocities.org/articles/chrome stop thinking Google ain't collecting your personal data cause they are! I assume your either a Google Employee or your a Fed look at the link even Wikipedia states Google Chrome is not Open Source your freaking trying to gaslight me into think Google are good people but they are a fing business at the end of the day and they are an advertisements firm they sell user data or should I bring up that Incognito mode isn't Private Google got sued because of this also they where tracking user data and tying that data to your Google ID/Gmail time.com/6962521/google-incognito-lawsuit-data-settlement/ and www.techzim.co.zw/2022/10/think-you-browse-privately-using-incognito-google-employees-laughing-at-you/ you are just trying way to hard to gaslight me and to protect Google. You still want to criticize me for using Brave at least its fully Open Source under the MPL License so don't even try to come at me saying Brave is not a good browser Google Chrome is still shit and spyware You can always recommend an user what can be used together with it's pros and cons. You can also call a software bad and useless,but you can never tell that to someone who chose to use that piece of software. You cannot shout at people because they don't use the software you like or force them to use the software they didn't choose. On top of that if you also want people to acknowledge that you are 21 years old,act your age manchild.
