There's nothing good about them, they've raised a generation of NPCs specifically brainwashed to work inside centralized, corporate and proprietary social media, Bluesky is doing exactly that as well.
There's three kinds of people in Bluesky, those that do nothing more than shill the platform 24/7 like braindead cryptobros, those american Twitter leftist degenerates that say the most unhinged, batshit insane take about whatever, and those that are both. They keep bitching about Twitter being full of bigot NPCs, yet they're exactly the same breed on the opposite side of the spectrum, being stuck in a room with freaks blinds your judgement.
> but the way it's built is better for people that want strong moderation
The way it's built is that if you make a post saying I don't like <minority> you get permabanned, but advocating murdering people that infringes copyright laws is cool and good.
Strong moderation for thee but not for me, because I'm from the tooth paste flag crowd, a jew or whatever other bullshit minority they shield behind.
The odds they got some funding with public money from retarded european governments are high, you're funding their shit with your money and they're not giving you source code back.
You should not buy (or better yet, do not even consume) european proprietary software, and if possible annoy the shit out of them a la Jeffcliff if they used public funding for their dogshit proprietary soyware slop.
They keep adding new GUI makeup on top of GUI makeup without removing old stuff, of course it'll be bloated, specially since W11 that uses Electron for the new GUI.
So you went through the headache that is wiping Defender?
Also the European version is as bloated out of the box as any other version, the difference is that they allow you to manually remove each piece of proprietary shitware, that's still very time consuming and inconvenient.
Winblows Defender is the absolute worst offender when it comes to crippling performance and wasting RAM and CPU cycles, specially CPU cycles, it makes low spec computers unusable and I know that from personal experience.
AV is there not to protect users but to protect corporate interests, also glows, also spyware. If you have Defender installed then you haven't got rid of the wost piece of bloat.
Your computer is already compromised if you have Winblows installed, and even more with Defender which will arbitrarily get hash db updates and suddenly your cracked binaries/libs, custom binaries/libs will get wiped without notice breaking a ton of shit in the process. Doesn't this behavior remind you of something? It's called malware.
