    Well, if you want accuracy, then no the meme isn’t really that accurate.

    On an updated Win11 system the Shift+ F10 command prompt “OOBE\BYPASSNRO” trick still works to setup a new system without Internet (and by extension, without a MS account) so that’s like most of the battle right there

    The rest is taken care of with your choice of debloat scripts that are out there

      compared to clicking “next” on Fedora, Debian, or Mint

      I’d say using a simple straightforward GUI is much easier than an arcane combination of commands and keypresses

        Wait, did we just reach a point where a command line input is needed for Windows and Linux just needs to press a few buttons??

        Well, I didn’t say it should be ranked towards the bottom lol, if we want to make this graph accurate it would be below arch but above “Windows the normal way”

          If you install arch with the archinstall script you basically get a setup wizard

          And installing a Microsoft-account-free Windows install is only the first step of de-bloating the system. So I’d say debloated Windows in somewhere between Arch and Gentoo

      I used AtlasOS on my windows partition. Had to cause for some reason steam streaming was borked and would only black screen. And now I’m too lazy to swap back over to cachyos. Lmao. Waiting to see that bug is fixed.
