    I reinstall about every 6 months, or whenever there is a big feature update. It’s rather noticeable when running benchmarks that performance drops over time mostly 0.1% lows.

    Especially when running a stripped install, Microsoft somehow always finds a way to enable shit again or reinstall bloat with updates.

      This, plus I’ve found corruption to be a way bigger issue on Windows. I had been using a Win10 install for about 5 years and eventually it just stopped booting and I had to reformat. Maybe it was my SSD, but I’ve been running Linux on that same SSD ever since then with 0 issues.

      What do you change after a clean Windows install? I used to have a script that would turn everything off but it doesn’t work anymore.
