Sharing here because of the post from 14 hours ago.

In my case, I thought I could survive a few weeks on a Surface with a fresh Windows install because I'd been planning to sell it. Now that it's turning into my daily driver with no real end in sight (and with all my thumb drives packed away), I have Yet Another Flash Drive™ arriving this evening so I can go back to KDE precisely because of this sort of bullshit.

Okay, they are probably offline install ISOs with all the software included right?

On Linux its also a little different, as uninstalling "bloat" is just one command or GUI button. On Windows you need shady external software for that and it doesnt feel like its meant to be at all, with all those cmd windows popping up etc (BCU)
