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!!

          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.

        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

          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.

                  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.
