And instead I simply dropped Windows.
Frankly, I have no fucking sympathy for Windows users. They keep putting up with this shit, quit crying about it and take control of your OS.
It "just works" (hah using that quote for windows) though. I probably have the tech knowledge to do everything I want on Linux, but I don't want to have to struggle through it or take the performance hit on non native games

Old news, try to get something new to talk about!
Perhaps I just did something stupid, but I just found Bing and anothernMS app in my Android phone's app list... never explicitly installed those. I do have Authenticator, though (for work). Has MS stooped to piggybacking their crap from others silently now?
Apps cannot install other apps without your permission.
You probably just have a shit phone with loads of shovelware on it.

After 30 years on MacOS (yes, I am older than dirt), I switched to Windows 11. I love it. With a few software add-ins, notably Better Desktop Tool and Start11, as well as a deep-dive into Settings/Notifications, etc., it's useable, comfortable, fairly Mac-like, and not too annoying. I guess I'm lucky as I don't have any UI/UX baggage from past Windows OSs to drag behind me. Yeah, it's different than MacOS, but I can get stuff done.
