Word to the wise: "debloating" windows 10/11 does not make it stop collecting data on you and sending it to all Jedi Blue II participants. It just hides annoyances. If you are interested in a lean OS which you actually have control over, consider checking out GNU/Linux.

I am on a pretty vanilla Ubuntu/Gnu install and don't miss a thing. Zoom works, Google Docs works, Telegram/Slack/Discord works. Plus the native python integration is a+++

I want to but my main computer needs a lot of graphics/animation/design programs that only have a real alternative on Windows. Linux never had strong graphical contenders, for professionals at least. It’s in improving, Blender and Godot are great.

I do have a Pi, so technically I am halfway into Linux ;)
