When you buy a new PC—whether a high-end gaming device or an entry-level laptop—you expect it to be clean from the start. However, Windows 11 typically comes with at least a few unwanted pre-installed apps, called bloatware. How should you remove bloatware from your PC?

        Being mad that Linux would work for more people than who already realize it would?! Super original. Suggestions of Linux are typically universally loved!!

          Not when it’s being shoved down their throat in every other post. Not everyone is interested in switching and answering people’s questions with “lol why you not on Linux just switch!” Are a waste of people’s time and not likely to get people to really switch. In fact, being pushy will reinforce people deciding NOT to switch.

            Every other post? It’s almost like it’s popular. I wonder why? Maybe, it’s better. Just maybe.

            I never claimed it was a successful strategy. In fact my only point is that people react to it the same way every time. Annoyed. No matter how the message is delivered or when it is

          That is not at all the issue. This is the Windows 11 community. By bringing up Linux it entirely misses the whole point of the community. Not everything has to be about Linux, regardless of your feelings about it. It’s like saying “all lives matter”.

            I think this is the worst comparison in human history. Props.

            Microsoft won’t stop enshittifying Windows reardless of how you feel about it. Or how unfamiliar Linux feels for you.

            You already need an insane amount of scripting just to make it usable.

          Sure, just ignore the entire point of the community. Great “”“solution”“” bud

            Yes, it is a great solution. I never had to deal with Microsoft bullshit again when I realized no amount of tuning Windows will stop them fom reinstalling all the bloatware next update.

                  It’s a simplified version of your argument. Considering this is the Windows 11 community it’s not only just stupid, it’s also utterly distasteful, to even bother suggesting Linux.

                  If you can’t understand how this is a simplified version of your ‘argument’, then that’s the core issue. At least try to comprehend how you’re in the wrong here.

                    no, its really not what i’m saying at all.

                    you are equating using an alternative to not using a computer at all, and it seems to be why you reject the idea that said alternative can be a solution to windows’ pervasive issues.

                    its the mentality that got us here in the first place and since antitrust is not a thing anymore, being actually open to the only alternative is pretty much all we can do to fix it at its roots now.
