   Windows 11 has made the “clean Windows install” an oxymoron

   Op-ed: PC makers used to need to bring their own add-on bloatware—no longer.

     @arstechnica "Everyone is doing this" sounds like someone who hasn't touched Linux ever in their life.

     @arstechnica all this and more can be avoided by switching to Linux.

     Linux is no longer just the operating system used only for geeks, nerds, and the otherwise tech savvy user. Linux has become so easy to install with a wide range of hardware and plug-in-play support, that even my grandparents used Linux, as does my niece.

     Today, I can even play games, bank, live stream, work from home, surf the web, and watch movies on streaming services (Apple+, HBO Max, Paramount+, ShowTime, Disney+, ect)

     @arstechnica windows is the worse OS: it wastes enormous amounts of electricity just to deal with updates. at work my windows 10 is installing new updates every week . last time it sucked my battery dry , I didn't do anything on it , just letting it install shyt,reboot, install new shyt and rereboot...
     ok my IT department adds it's own layer of spies and bloatware, but windows has fundamental design flaws. The opposite for my Linux, updates are fast,low resource usage, rarely require rebooting
