I’m on 24H2 Windows 11 with a local account set up, ran windows debloat tool and have CoPilot/onedrive/other data mining features un-installed.

Edit: I have a plan to make the switch to Linux. For now I was just looking for any feedback on how to handle current Windows OS. I whole heartedly hate Microsoft as much as the next, I promise lol.

    Linux never asked my mother’s maiden name nor insisted on creating a cloud account just to log into my computer.

    Also, many distros of Linux come with all the main baseline productive software one should need on a live boot media, ain’t even gotta install it to try it out.

      Lol wut? Even on Windows 11, I can use a local account with zero online signup. Linux is fantastic, I have two machines running it, but there are some specific softwares that are still Windows dependent (think video editing, music production, VFX).

      So you can install Linux but you couldn’t figure out how to use Rufus to install Windows? Figures
