You can’t verify how private MacOS and Windows are, besides checking the network to see if they send data to a server, as unlike Linux they are closed source.

The PC Security Channel made a video comparing Windows 11 and XP with Wireshark. The telemetry settings in Windows 11 are set to minimal, you can see his response to a specific comment about it. Here’s the link: https://youtu.be/IT4vDfA_4NI
He doesn’t say he has minimal telemetry, he actually says it’s a brand new laptop (from manufacturer) out of the box with nothing installed. What we are referring to above is with telemetry disabled in oobe.
If you see a specific comment, he responds that he set everything that he could off. What I think this means is he set it off the first time the laptop turned on, since (I’m guessing) the same screen as above appeared when he turned the laptop on for the first time

This is why I make students install a copy of Windows without the use of a mouse.
Mr.Gates is not in Microsoft for years, but yes
Surprised there wasn’t a conspiratorial reference to covid testing in the meme tbh

Bill Gates no longer works for Microsoft. He couldn’t care less about you’re data.
No, you’re data!
Let us hope he is not just data but an actual person.
That’s the part of joke
The illusion of choice
Welcome to “windows as a service”. At this point Windows is basically like a freemium app.
Yes, except the free part
Wait, you’re paying for Windows?
Part of the price when you buy a computer.
I just bought a used laptop that came with windows 11. After all of this data collection crap it started blue screening after I installed the first set of updates.
Pop Os has been running flawlessly.
Slipstreamed windows is the only way. Skip all this bullshit and pre-remove all the bloatware fuckery too. Highly recommend if you are installing windows regularly: https://techcult.com/how-to-slipstream-windows-10-installation/
OOSU10 is also helpful if you don’t wanna mess with install media.
Our internal documentation for setting up a windows VM literally says “Press ‘maybe later’ for the next 9 screens”
Every year that passes makes me happier I switched to Linux only instead of dual booting. Happy Debian user here.

On the USB stick

What’s the best way to get it?

Like what communities? Never saw a megathread here.
You guys should try making your install media using Rufus

i really like ventoy, but when i tried to install fedora a few months ago it wouldn’t work for some reason. I switched back to just flashing one iso at a time now through the recommended way since i usually don’t need more than one iso anyway.

Yeah that’s what i use mostly now
I recently created win11 install media with rufus and I was amazed with what it can do. Makes the whole install a breeze since you don’t need to turn off the telemetry and log in to M$ account. All around plesant experience
Spoiler alert, when you hit accept all tabs go back to “on”.
