The Windows 11 OOBE is terrible || Consumers don't want bloat.

Brought a new thinkpad with windows 11 pro, and now I am uninstalling windows 11 pro for linux. The constant popups and bloat installed is uningratiating and sure, there are debloat scripts, but I really cannot be bothered to deal with this horse excrement of an operating system.

I have 'trailed' Windows 11 LTSC in the past and it is a much better experience than the OOBE garbage consumers get. When I 'trailed' LTSC, for a test, I immediately liked it more. No appstore, No co-pilot, No gimmicks, Just windows 11 how it should be. Microsoft is bleeding money and their userbase, I bet a pretty penny that if they sold a modern version of Windows FLP based on windows 11, people would be buying it.

I like Windows, but whichever ding-dong is incharge of what goes into and out-of windows, needs their knee-caps cracked and their head shoved into a swirly with a floater. Nobody pays near a grand for a new computer, just to have a compromised experience.
