We're on a tech-focused site where someone mentioned that they don't install windows, because they don't want to login with an online-account. i agree that my described work-around is not made for the common enduser and i hate that this feature is so hidden, but i think executing a single command you find after 30 seconds of googling is not too much to ask for from a tech-adjacent person :)
i see posts on here of people reverse-engineering firmwares, hacking together new things, finding and using exploits etc., not sure why installing a windows seems to be a huge topic, then.

- tacker2000 2y agoWhy is this a hack? This just a toggle to disable the new “feature”. It makes total sense for the Windows engineers to have this kind of feature flag. And i dont think they are going to rip out the code that runs and supports local accounts.
