it's a swole doge vs cheems meme
on swole doge side, there are two popups: kCrash and Ubuntu apport. Both have options to see detailed logs and an optional button to send report to developers, along with options to close the popup.
accompanied is a text that reads "Here's the information. What do you wish to do?"
on crying cheems side, there's popup for windows and mac. windows has just a cancel button with report being sent already. mac has ignore and report button. there is no option to see logs without reporting on both. here, accompanied text reads, "let's add this to the personally identifiable information we have on you."
lol, I like your way with words. and I fully agree and share the sentiment(hence the meme).
I disliked crash reporting on windows precisely because of inability to cancel it(by the time you hit cancel, it might've already been sent).
nowadays, I don't use windows at all. sometimes I'm forced to use macos, and this popup comes up. I dislike this one too since I can't really see what it's going to send.
on my home machine I have Debian with i3 and xfce, which hasn't crashed a single time. and even if it does in some distant future, I'll be more than happy to send technical info to them.
You can disable error reporting on Windows, by the way. Disable the "Windows Error Reporting" service. Either via Task Manager, or services.msc, or whatever your preferred method is.
don't use windows now. but will keep it in mind in case i encounter an unfortunate device infected with it.
