I would at the least like to remove what tracking I can from my life, sure. I'm not going to just roll over. I understand I am being tracked through other means.
I don't really think what I said is that midwit nonsense. I'd say not caring about it all is though.

How long before A.I. can go in an optimize the code for an operating system? If not write one from scratch?

Speaking of Microslop. My monitors started acting really weird the last couple of weeks, all kinds of animations and noises that I didn't want. Unbeknownst to me Win11 decided to install the LG Monitor App on it's own without any input from me. Might be time to finally switch to Linux, this is not the type of shit I want in a PC.

For the most part. There should still be room for analyzing the code and getting rid of all the obsolete shit like drivers, conflicting code, etc.

They currently have a debloating initiative called K2. Their goal is for Windows to be at gaming performance parity with SteamOS in 2 years.
They have brought back the ability to indefinitely delay automatic updates (it needs to be refreshed every 35 days, but it can be done as many times as you want without the system eventually forcing you to update), and they are also doing a ground-up rewrite of the UI compositor to improve performance
There are some nice Start menu improvements coming, but it's been slow.
But for a lot of people, it may be too little/too late. I have already migrated my laptop onto Linux, and I am (slowly) preparing to move over my desktop as well.

I'm going to build a new PC in the coming months and would love to ditch Windows. Unfortunately, my kids use the computer for doing some of their schoolwork. As a test I put Linux on an old laptop and let my son use it. For the most part it was fine, but there were a few apps he couldn't launch from the school portal. Sucks

They were. I can’t remember specifics, it was at the beginning of this year. Maybe I’ll try again. I didn’t put much effort into it since he was trying to do work.

It's a school system, so my immediate thought was some ancient IE11 ActiveX shit. I'm sure that's no longer used, though.
Right, I would think any modern browser should be fine. Microsoft has their latest Edge for Linux. That could be an option as a secondary browser.
