I sidestepped to Mint. Sorry, Microsoft, your shit’s untenable and disappointing.

I did too on my laptop but on pc I'll probably just stick with windows 10, I'd rather deal with security vulnerabilities then ai in my OS

If you must use windows, and might want to upgrade to 11, lets say, for certain games, this project Flyoobe will help create a windows 11 install without all that bloat and ai

Thank you the link is much appreciated :D

But admit one of my major grips with windows 11 is it's extremely ugly looking, and I don't really think there is any way to remedy that

You can replace the default windows UI with an alternative shell like Open Shell (here’s a list). Not sure how reliable this works.
