Microsoft removes documentation for switching to a local account in Windows 11
But most Microsoft account sign-in workarounds for Windows 11 continue to work.

@arstechnica Fun fact: if your online account gets locked -- such as if you log into your account on a console apparently (that's what did it for me. I logged into Minecraft. That's it. Just logged in. Didn't make any purchases, didn't even play online. Just logged in) it breaks access to your computer. And if you log in with a second account, anything encrypted with the first is inaccessible. This is a big problem if you don't want to give them personal info (like your cell number.)
@arstechnica Absolutely draconian bullshit.

@arstechnica Microsoft hasn't had proper and useful documentation for their OS in like 2 decades now. It has been a piecemeal mess that is only useful after the community of users writes the rest of it for them. And then what did they do? Broke every old link on their documentation site. I'm moving to linux soon. Almost all the games I own work on it now, and there isn't a single piece of Windows-only software that I can't do without.
@arstechnica If only a global community of companies and individuals was developing a superior operating system that didn't come with any of this BS
