You can install the enterprise iot version or running chris titus's debloat script. But if you do this, you're technically savvy enough to use Linux and really want to/have to stay on Windows.
Why do all my homies use Linux Mint while I use Ubuntu?
Because you're wrong?
Personally I don't like snaps, is the main thing.
With archinstall script you can install Arch in less than 1 minutes (not counting copying system files)
If you are good with a slightly more complicated install process and don't need access to Windows tools (like Outlook, Teams, Word, PowerPoint, etc), you can run Linux on bare metal to access the full potential of your hardware without any overhead from virtualization or emulation.
Okay I’m a big supporter of Linux but this is misinformation.
Windows 11 LTSC install was the easiest install I’ve ever done, even easier than mint (or as easy).
The image I used even asked me the username when I was creating the bootable usb so I would save some time.
It also let me opt out of data collection and the rest of the bloatware.
Came with office and it was pre activated.
Now, if only that’s what Microsoft offered their mainstream consumer…
Edit: I don’t understand the downvotes. My last sentence does point out that Microsoft doesnt intentionally make it easier but imo we shouldn’t circle jerk by just claiming things that can easily be false.
Fedora takes 0 brain power to install.
I call bullshit. It only took me 3 hours to compile and install gentoo on my latest build and get proper desktop environment working. Granted I'm still tweaking the config files 4 years later, but it's perfect!
difficulity
The difficulity of spelling difficulity is very difficulit.
Where’s Arch if you don’t RTFM? (I mean we’ve got 2 windows install modes there… only fair)
Kubuntu is also super easy.
Stupid list leaves off the most popular linux install and puts that fringe one in.
The windows one seems exaggerated until you try to set it up with a regular local account.
Setting up a scratch install VM is such a pain.
Hint: :q!
