Microsoft May Remove Windows 11 Online Login Requirement

Microsoft May Remove Windows 11 Online Login Requirement - Lemmy.zip

> One of the biggest pain points for Windows 11 users in recent years is Microsoft’s insistence to log into an online account to access Windows 11. Seemingly as part of the Windows team’s recent initiative to address community feedback, Microsoft may be moving towards a Windows 11 that no longer requires that online account login at the initial setup. While no official plans have been confirmed, Scott Hanselman, a Microsoft Partner Product Manager and VP of Developer Community, recently hinted at the change in a post on X. This announcement comes after Microsoft revealed plans to improve Windows 11 memory management and the overall user experience.

Too late for most every user who switched to Linux. Who the fuck would want all the garbage they force you into in modern windows?

Also you can’t really trust all these “rollback” claims they are throwing around at the moment. We know what Microslop thinks is the future of their OS, because they have literally poured billions of dollars into AI development. This is just them attempting to sugarcoat their giant turd, lure people into feeling obligated to continue with Windows 11 as they will then gradually turn up the sloppification again.

I trust them somewhat, because it would be in Microsoft’s best interest to maintain a monopoly on the OS market and to appease their business customers. Admitting their mistakes also puts them in a more vulnerable position than if they’d just pretended nothing was the matter.
