Given my experience with debloating w10 you're probably setting yourself up for misery when a mandatory update inevitably conflicts with whatever workarounds you've been using

You are right. Yesterday my Windows 11 'explorer patch' (ungroup taskbar) broke the UI which was flickering and not able to do much except open task manager.
Had to boot to restore menu, uninstall update, remove explorer patch, reinstall updates. Incredibly frustrating and not worth it for me.
On the topic: i feel the same after having bought a laptop with windows 11. Usability has regressed and you get less control in terms of customization. The ads and bloatware feel so cheap as well. Thankfully i only have to run it for gaming and ubuntu for everything else
