Things I've ran into on Windows 11. (Dont @ me that 'I don't have that problem', I do)
>The colors can conflict between dark mode and deafult OS to the point you cannot see text
>There are clickbait news stories that cannot be turned off
>Onedrive will fill up with data and bother you about being full
>For some reason, some programs will not display despite clicking on them. You must minimize the program infront of them
>There is no switch user button

>Ads are on by default
What I find amazing is that corporate professional computers have literal ads on them. I have a fortune 20 job and I have ads on my computer. These ads are for competitor products, for politics, and sports.
Anyway, LPT: For a personal OS, Fedora. Literally higher quality than Windows. Shockingly higher quality, I was a bit frustrated that I didn't know about fedora sooner. I don't consider Fedora 'Linux', because Linux has a bad reputation with things like Debian/Ubuntu/Mint that are 2+ years outdated out of the box. Fedora is different. I have a windows computer for legacy software like Adobe and CAD, but those are only used when doing work. Sometimes I have an old video game that needs windows.
- johnisgood 2y agoFor debloating Windows 10 - 11: https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil https://github.com/ChrisTitusTech/winutil https://github.com/LeDragoX/Win-Debloat-Tools https://github.com/LeDragoX/Win-Debloat-Tools Other than that, I do recommend Linux (mainstream ones are easy to install), for sure. I have been using it ever since I was 13 years old if not younger.
- stevenAthompson 2y agoIf you say it's solid, I'll buy it... but the first one is terrifying. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. Even if Chris Titus is legit if his site gets owned so does anyone running this as Administrator in the way described. > irm "hxxps://christitus[.]com/win" | iex
- johnisgood 2y agoI only used the last one, that seemed to work.
- resource_waste 2y agoI know you are trying to be helpful, but this is a bandaid at best. I also wouldn't feel comfortable installing this on a computer that is security critical. The other thing is that Windows is annoying. Where Fedora 'just works', Windows needs a third party debloater tool? I'm certain its not going to fix all the items I listed as well..
- johnisgood 2y agoI know it is a bandaid, I would obviously recommend Linux. It is for people who MUST use Windows.
