Spy/bloat-ware that comes pre-installed and can't be uninstalled or even disabled for longer than the current session. Literally nobody asked for this. Many of us hate onedrive for all the same reasons.

PC users don't like walled gardens. We're not Apple cultists. We're not brand loyal. Microsoft makes the default Operating System we're forced to use. That's their whole job. If they fart around chasing trends and lose billions, that's their own problem. A skill issue. A real "don't quit your day job" situation.

Learn the lesson. And don't pour billions into chasing the next scam. LLMs are today's NFTs and the fad is fading just as quickly.
