Statcounter reports that Windows 11 continues to lose its market share for the second month in a row. Windows 10, meanwhile, is gaining more users and is now back above the 70% mark.

I really don't have any issues with it, but I debloated it as soon as I got it.

[–] floridaman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 61 points 7 months ago (2 children)

So you removed all of the windows 11 from the windows 11, sounds pretty tolerable.

[–] TheGrandNagus@lemmy.world 57 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Not like Windows 10 doesn't have heaps and heaps of bloat and spyware. Windows 11 just continues the trend.

[–] aStonedSanta@lemm.ee 9 points 7 months ago

It made the trend visible to non power users atleast. That’s for sure.

[–] Linssiili@sopuli.xyz 6 points 7 months ago

Yeah, the secret is to debloat it all the way to 7. Going under that is not advisable expect under doctors supervision.

[–] henfredemars@infosec.pub 16 points 7 months ago

I heard it’s pretty good with the bloat stripped. Honestly, if I’m going to start modifying my system I decided I’d rather have an OS that supports it properly.

More power to you though!

Do you have any guides or tips for others that might want to do the same?

'clean up your PC' type programs get sketchy, so reliable recommendations would be appreciated

As far as a debloater goes I recommend this one. Not only is it fast, it also has options to reverse all the things you did previously.

Beware of those things, all the people you see complaining that the store doesn't work when they want to use gamepass were debloat users.

This is what I use. . They have a good preset, and there's also the option to install 3rd party apps and do UI tweaks.

Same, but I run a "pro" version that I acquired from work like a decade ago.
