    Windows 11 vs Fedora Comments

    Windows 11 tries very hard to push stuff you haven't asked for and don't want, even more than Windows 10. Fedora isn't going to push breaking news at you on the login screen, or do a Bing search when you're trying to find a locally-installed app, or try to convince you to save everything to OneDrive so they can upsell you on more storage later on.
