“Hate” is a strong word. You don’t really hate Windows 11.....if you did, you wouldn’t still be using it.
What you actually hate is the bloat, and that’s fair. It’s annoying. But let’s be honest, most of it can be stripped out in ten minutes with a few scripts or settings tweaks.
Now, about the telemetry, yes, it’s there. No, you can’t fully disable it. And no, ranting online isn’t going to change that fact. For those still praising Windows 10, or even clinging to Windows 7 thinking they were “cleaner,” I’ve got news for you.....Microsoft has been collecting your data for a long time. In fact, they even backported telemetry updates to Windows 7, and many of you installed them without realizing it.
At the end of the day, it’s about accepting the tradeoffs or moving to something else entirely. Telemetry is here to stay, and not just in operating systems. It’s baked into nearly every digital product you use, apps, games, websites....you just don’t notice it because that little “Accept” button is so convenient, and you can't be bothered to read the terms anyway.
