Just a heads up, Windows 11 IoT LTSC is out, and it has none of M$'s bullshit you read about weekly. It can be tricky to find the .iso, so it would be a real shame if people wasted their time looking for it @ massgrave.dev

Microsoft just seems to be trying various methods of shooting itself in the foot.
I guess maybe they really didn’t learn from the 80s/90s….
They're gambling that it won't be enough to drive the majority of users to other operating systems.

Microsoft is doing an amazing job ~~keeping me off~~ selling windows 11!
Keep up the great work!
Guess it's time for Linux and for me to give up gaming :/
I switched to Linux last week and I haven't had any issues with my Steam games. Just had to turn on the setting to have Steam provide Linux support for games that don't provide it themselves.

With Proton, a large majority of games run on Linux, and most even better than on windows.
Is proton the distro or program?
Proton is steam's version of wine which is used automatically when you install any game that doesnt have a specific linux version.
I game on Linux. Go check protondb for compatibility with your favourite game

This has to be a massive GDPR violation?
If I understand it correctly this behavior happens only for newly deployed computers if you sign in with Microsoft account so there are no unexpected uploads to OneDrive, only downloads of your existing files if you used this feature before.
Although once you start saving files you might not realise files are being saved to also OneDrive. All in all it is a weird and dumb change, that popup where you are prompted if you want to enable known folder move was perfectly fine.
