OneDrive usurping my folders and data, siphoning it to their servers without my permission (just like a virus) is exactly why I switched to Linux. It’s such a breath of fresh air not feeling like every update is trying to monetize and enshittify my computer more
For me it was being able to fully disable co-pilot and make sure that it stayed disabled. I asked it how to turn itself off and it hallucinated options that didn’t exist.
My wife made a giant folder called garbage she shoves stuff that she copied out of Windows to put in OneDrive so it can’t fit her files when it decides to randomly start uploading again.

You can just uninstall it, you do realise that right? Making Onedrive fuck off and stay fucked off is pretty easy to do.
Snaps…
No one forces you to use Snaps or a distro that enforces Snaps.
I suppose Ubuntu could count as an exception…
Luckily there are plenty of choices, Fedora is my personal fav
Download ISO from M$, wipe and install, uninstall One Drive, done. Betting you got fucked using the Dell or HP or whatever factory install.
Only enshittification I see is a single sentence on my lock screen. Don’t care, used a Windows crack, paid nothing.
