Sightly off topic, but relevant to your question.
Recently I installed win10 pro and was appalled at the way I had you jump through hoops to NOT have a m$ account, not to mention the blatant adware. And this was win10 professional.
It certainly reminded me that m$ is a long long way away from where it was in the 90s and early naughties.
So, a good start would be a stable and private os without all the adware and telemetry.
PS: I use gitea instead of GitHub these days. Nor do I use vscode, but sublime text, for the same reasons: too much telemetry that cant be disabled permanently.
