It really isn't that bad if you run a debloat script.
Man windows sounds complicated. All these scripts and programs you've gotta hunt the web for, opening the command prompt or doing a load of registry edits to not see ads everywhere.
These days it’s easier to game on Linux than it is to debloat Windows
I've been a hardcore Linux gamer for 15+ years, but there's some games that just don't work on Linux, unfortunately. Sim racing was something I wanted to get into so I could get familiarity with some tracks before I actually go drive them, so putting up with windows long enough to launch the games is something I can deal with.
If M$ starts sending me ads mid game, then I might start looking for other solutions.
