    One of our PCs in the house has Windows 11, and it’s already a nightmare - even after stripping out as much adware/bloatware as possible.

    Now we’re going to be getting something far worse, with extra surveillance features and AI interpretation of them. Wonderful!

      If you still have bloatware/adware, you didn’t strip out as much a possible. If you lack the understanding to do so, feel free to ask a professional computer technician for help.

      ~Sincerely a Windows user without bloatware.

        “Hire a professional to make your computer stop being hostile” is a more user-unfriendly solution than telling them to switch to Linux. It also only works until a Windows Update re-enables whatever they disabled for you, without notifying you or asking permission.
