I’n using Elementary OS right now. It’s been my daily driver for several years on a low powered laptop as a Chromebook replacement. I run browser, messaging, and occasionally some light photo or audio editing.
No complaints. Works great. Solid. Looks great. If you have a similar use case, I recommend it. All of the people ITT talking about what’s wrong with it have not changed my mind that it’s just what I need.
It’s not just a breach you have to worry about. Credit agencies actively monetize your financial data by selling it to anyone who wants it. You didn’t give it to them, you didn’t authorize it, they collect it and they sell it.
