What's the alternative then? "dEbLoAtInG" Windows?

It's gonna get re-bloated again and again! And they will add more and more bullshit over time, annoying way more!

No, the alternative is to realise you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

Or Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2024. That has less bloat in the first place.

Or MacOS. That might work better for the individual user's use case.

  1. Win11 IoT Enterprise LTSC is for enterprises, not normal users.

  2. macOS needs some sort of mac from apple, and those are ridiculously overpriced and locked down more than north korea.

  3. Why would you believe Big Tech? They're lying 99% of the time for profit, heck; they do every bullshit possible on this universe just for money.
