@sun The worst part is that it would be trivial for Microsoft to release a perfectly fine OS. It would cost them next to nothing. The "bones" of Windows 11 are fine, it's all supplementary UX bullshit they force onto you that ruin it. They basically just need to make version that has the equivalent of those "Windows fixing" scripts run on it. But they INSIST, you NEED telemetry, you NEED Copilot, you NEED to have a fucking Microsoft Account, you NEED to see clickbait news headlines in your fucking start menu and everywhere you forget to disable it, you NEED to have Candy Crush ads. You NEED to relinquish control and have everything switch back when they push an update.
