Always install enterprise editions of Windows.

I wonder how Apple compares to this shit show. Also, any good decrapifier for the poor people like myself that need it for work?

Apple’s… well, the last couple OS versions feel like they’re letting the planned obsolescence loose on the intel machines - particularly because they’re not going to make any more x86-cored computers going forward.

Honestly, Linux is a lot more viable nowadays. I’ve been running Ubuntu on my personal laptop for years now.

Can't you sysprep a custom win11 image without the bloat?
