    Setting up a new laptop - How do I get around needing a Microsoft account?

    I use Linux. Not trolling, it’s just what I decided to do so I could avoid Microsoft spying craziness… and their bloatware, too.

    If Linux is not an option for you, maybe an utility like Win11Debloat could help you use Windows whiled minimizing (removing?) all the spying and bloat? https://github.com/Raphire/Win11Debloat

      Same. Linux for more than a decade. It’s been great. Runs all my games, my work stuff, and anything else.
