Bloatynosy has now evolved into BloatynosyAI and it can disable AI features on Windows 11 or Microsoft Edge that a user may consider as bloatware. This new app works on Windows 10 as well.

Can you imagine installing Windows and having to install 10 seperate programs just to fix all the issues with it?
Every day with Windows is like this. It’s a fucking nightmare. I don’t know what else to do.
Install linux :)
I tried installing Linux on the new work laptop yesterday.
The keyboard wasn't recognised. The fucking keyboard.
Apparently it's fixed in kernel 6.6 but nothing has that yet coz they're all using the earlier LTS
i didn't even have to scroll to find the first instance of this comment
Truly Truly, I say unto you, install Linux; it's what you really must do.

Right, right. Smh
Onenote, publisher, CAD. Excel (and don't give me open/libre can do it, no they can't. They are marginally compatible).
And a laundry list more of the issues trying to replace windows with Linux on the desktop.
If you work by yourself and don't share docs, yea, could probably work. I need to trust that what I send is what people see.
Try to open an excel workbook with tables on open/libre and see what happens.
Specialist software in general is patchy at best. There are often FOSS alternatives... But in the same way they aren't compatible with what other people are using.
I have a few games that don’t run on Steam. How big of a pain is it to get them running?
This is like 50-70% of my PC usage.
I game on Linux and mainly play games bought from GOG. Both GOG and Epic games are extremely easy to get working, and are as simple as downloading Heroic Games Launcher, signing into GOG and/or Epic, and choosing the game you want to download from your library. While it is possible to use the official GOG Galaxy client with Lutris and WINE, I personally don't recommend it, as it's quite a glitchy and laggy experience, and is only done by people who can't live without GOG achievements. For GOG.. just use Heroic. It's just as easy to use as the official Galaxy client is on Windows and also supports cloud-saves.
I've never used Amazon, but Heroic also recently added downloading your Amazon Prime games as an option, which I imagine is just as easy to get working as GOG and Epic Games already are.
This part isn't necessary, but if you want to play those games but launch them from Steam, you can add each game individually to Steam as a non-steam game through the Lutris or Heroic Games' interface. A handy app I recommend, which I never hear people mention, is BoilR, which automatically adds all of your non-steam games in bulk into your Steam Library.
As for the EA App and Ubisoft Connect, I ditched them over a year ago due to not wanting to support the companies (same with Epic). I honestly don't remember what the process was exactly for those launchers, but I do remember it was very easy to set up in Lutris.
Lastly, I've never used Battle.net either, but I've heard it's quite easy to set up in Lutris.
You can search on e.g. Lutris if the game is supported. It's usually just a one button install
Thanks. Looks like it’s all Wine wrappers. 🫤
It is not uncommon to find "Wine wrappers" to actually work better than on Windows itself.
Fairly easy with something like lutris or the heroic game launcher if said games are on gig amazon gaming or epic
No, they have their own launchers.
Truly the Bethesda of operating systems.
