Microsoft's telemetry features in Windows 10 are a privacy advocate's nightmare. Now that Microsoft is trying to back port these "features" into existing versions of Windows, it seems like many of us have no future upgrade path. Sure there is Linux, but I have some older Windows software that I still want to use. ReactOS is still out there, but does not look like there have been any updates in a while.
Does the Soylent community believe it is possible to get this project going full steam to producing a useable alternative for existing Windows users?

While I could hope that Windows 10 will be the last MS 'success'. I have my serious doubts. People are adverse to change. Apple would be a much bigger player in the desktop market, if they had kept their computers in schools. Computers require Training. You have already lost, if you don't start early. I could be wrong about the last batch of young people coming through, but I still see MS in the labs.
