Every day I am more glad not to be part of the windows ecosystem.

I recently bought a new computer for the first time in ~5 years. I had to boot into windows 11. What a garbage shit show that OS has become. It took nearly an hour for updates, then it constantly dogged me to sign up for free trials of all kinds of crap. It required logging into Microsoft. It made me back things up.

At no point was any of this really optional. And when it was they made it difficult to find the option to skip.

Does oobe trick no longer work?

I give it a week before someone patches it.

I’m using LTSC. That’s fine. I suspect that’ll never require a Microsoft account.

Edit: come on EU. Step up here. Tell them they need to give the users choice.

Fuck Microsoft
