As a person who only uses Windows for gaming (I use Linux or MacOS everywhere else), I worry about these custom Windows ISOs being merely reskins of Windows. I would love to hear what you like about it -- I think I may try it out, as the sales pitch looks compelling:
> It aspires to re-create what Windows as an operating system should have been - easy and simple
> ReviOS [is] a capable, efficient yet private operating system
- LilBytes 3y agoYeah I'll do the same and report back. Might make a Show HN to talk about it. I need to better understand how updates work however, turning off auto updates is a concern. So I'll mostly be focusing on usability and how updates are managed as part of their tooling. 1st edit: Noticed a few broken links on their site regarding updates, I've created an issue on GH: https://github.com/meetrevision/revision-tool/issues/38 https://github.com/meetrevision/revision-tool/issues/38 2nd edit: I'm not sure how I feel about disabling Windows Defender. https://revi.cc/docs/faq/after/defender/ https://revi.cc/docs/faq/after/defender/ If you're not using Windows Defender, you'd want to use something else and I don't know what to recommend except Malware Bytes. I do have Malware Bytes running too so perhaps it's redundant, but as far as AVs (antivirus') go, Defender is the best of a very broad, bad bunch.
