Because I wasn't able to filter it myself.

The problem is that its not easy to install software on Linux. You have to know the system and how to deal with issues that come up during installation. That's the help I need.

If I may be so bold as to interpret the question. I think he was asking why do you have the device then?

If it's causing you issues - get rid of it. Yes, it may be inconvenient. Yes, there may be a cost. But if you can't filter, and having it around is causing you to fall, why don't you just get rid of it and replace it with a filterable device?

Is that a lifetime solution? Of course not. Will it help you significantly? Probably. So why not do it.

The reason I kept it was because I kept hoping that I would manage to filter it.
But you're 100% right, and this morning I erased Linux from my computer, and am sticking to Windows.

It's not easy.
The main thing I liked about Linux that it's a lot more efficient and therefore my battery lasts three times longer.
 Windows is a 1990s gas guzzler, while Linux is is a 2024 hybrid with 40mpg.
The charging port on my computer is broken. Sometimes it charges, sometimes it doesn't. Even when it does, it usually charges slowly.
When I used Linux, it was battery efficient enough that even with such shvache charging, it would get charged.
Now on Windows, most of the time I have an almost dead battery, and am frantically jiggling the charging wire around, trying to get it to charge.

Shalom Brother,
L'maskana, you need a filter that works. If your charger or computer needs to be replaced, that's a small price to pay for kedusha. 

Hatzlacha!
Every challenge is an opportunity. Every stumbling block is also a steppingstone. Keep climbing.
Today is yesterday's tomorrow.
"In the place where the penitents stand, the perfectly righteous cannot stand." -Berachos 34b
The yetzarim a person has the most trouble dealing with are his most powerful God-given tools for developing his potential and achieving shleimus.
In order to love who you are, you cannot hate the experiences that shaped you.
It doesn't matter how big the number is, only that today it is going up by one.

I agree, and thats why i took care of it.
Just about anything in the world is a small price to pay for kedusha, but that doesn't make it easy.
