    Yep. Just turned on my win10 machine and had a full screen spread trying to get me to upgrade which I had to decline 3 different times to get to my desktop. Keep this up M$oft and I’m gonna switch entirely to Linux and run windows in a VM.

      I found an excellent for me, half measure. Look up Windows X-Lite, they have a website. They offer 10 and 11 absolutely stripped of all the M$ bullshit and annoyances. Even windows defender can be removed.

      Legit reminds me of a fresh XP install. Back to installing the vc++ and net desktop runtimes again, even.

      I only don’t ditch windows because I love playing VR and occasionally Valorant. And Wayland isn’t quite where I’d like it to be feature wise for things like VRR and HDR.

        I wish Riot would make it so you can play Valorant on Linux, I’d switch off windows permanently right away.

            I play consistently with a group of friends, and I like the game. I don’t think using Windows counts as dedicating my life to it.
