I moved on to linux and use windows 10 sparinngly on a different image to watch netflix. I removed all the features, registry hive, autoupdates and all that, disabled Cortana, Im pretty sure I castrated the thing. And as soon as Im done with whatever I need it for I shut it down. Works out quite well like this. When I think of people who just accept all that from MS I feel a bit sorry for them but since they don’t seem to mind why would I?

I regret having wasted so many years on windows. All knowledge gained on Linux compounds quite well. On windows, forget about it. All the proprietary convoluted obfuscated software is not dev friendly at all unless you embrace working for corps for the rest of your life
