I read your post a third time: You really don’t want to share anything with MS. That’s good. You should consider using a Linux (I prefer manjaro, btw ;) ) because if you really hate MS that much, you shouldn’t use their products. If you don’t want to use a Linux, you’ll have to deal with MS. (Or Mac)

Ok, you don’t wanna hear “don’t use windows” so: You won’t get rid of everything but I used the tool from Titus to unbloat some machines: https://christitus.com/windows-tool/ Microsoft really, really wants your data, so they will do qnyh possible to stop you from gaining the complete power over your device. You should be aware of that. Also, some things won’t work if you secure and debloat your machine. This could get really annoying. Good luck!

Haha, nein.

What do you mean? Guitar > Amp > another Amp? No, don’t do that. You can go from preamp to another preamp, but never take the powered signal out of an amp into another amp. This will fry the latter.

Wenn du zur Miete wohnst: Vermieter*in nerven. Wenn nach einer Erinnerung nichts passiert mit Mietminderung drohen. Dann kümmern die sich schon. Wenn’s dein Eigentum ist: Wasser nachfüllen und beobachten. Wenns nicht besser wird, Fachfirma anrufen.

Nah, I’m good. Just because you can’t see ads doesn’t mean you’re safe. My browser (Vivaldi)blocked 23 trackers an 9 ads on that site. I’m glad that sites tell me, that they don’t want to let me view their site without getting tracked. I won’t disable my adblocker. When online journalism figured out that they should cooperatively work on a method to let readers pay for the content, I will probably disable it. But that won’t happen, because of greed.

So, I’ll probably never find out…
