    Bill Gates no longer works for Microsoft. He couldn’t care less about you’re data.

    Welcome to “windows as a service”. At this point Windows is basically like a freemium app.

    I just bought a used laptop that came with windows 11. After all of this data collection crap it started blue screening after I installed the first set of updates.

    Pop Os has been running flawlessly.

    Slipstreamed windows is the only way. Skip all this bullshit and pre-remove all the bloatware fuckery too. Highly recommend if you are installing windows regularly: https://techcult.com/how-to-slipstream-windows-10-installation/

        i really like ventoy, but when i tried to install fedora a few months ago it wouldn’t work for some reason. I switched back to just flashing one iso at a time now through the recommended way since i usually don’t need more than one iso anyway.

      I recently created win11 install media with rufus and I was amazed with what it can do. Makes the whole install a breeze since you don’t need to turn off the telemetry and log in to M$ account. All around plesant experience
