For Windows 10 i préfère w10privacy, open source and plenty of options
It's definitely not open source. In their FAQ (which is only in German): > Wieso ist die Software nicht Open-Source? "Die Community" könnte mithelfen, die Software weiterzuentwickeln etc. … "Why is this software not Open-Source?"

> I can not say for sure if 100% of telemetry is truly nullfied. I'll leave this here: https://ameliorated.info/ No Windows Update for you, so security is debatable.
I prefer the script[0] instead of the hacked ISO since you can install the script in later versions of W10 using your own preferred ISO. Only caveat: There's no way of telling what versions of W10 it's compatible with (I imagine it breaks some versions). I have an old VM with AME installed and manually enabled updates by hacking the registry. (You could also alter the .BAT script to enable updates, but you have to kn…
What do you mean by that? AME 21H1 was released just the other day.

It's perfect for VM use, but I would never use it as my main OS.

Telemetry isn't just a tool for product managers, but it's also a goldmine for national security agencies (more than just the NSA; Bing is unblocked in China for a reason). Anti-government meme made with GIMP at a specific timestamp? One search through the telemetry logs to find who exported a file at that exact moment. Any data collection is also government surveillance unless proven otherwise.
Imagine believing that Windows telemetry contains such data.

The “closed source ecosystem” is not nearly as restrictive as people make it out to be and is something that you willingly sign up for when buying apple products. Not sure where you got the idea of “icloud syncing your every move” but literally every icloud implementation can be disabled at your discretion. I for one only have my reminders, wallet, calendar and drive synced. Even with that said, none of this implies…
Your every move is quite literally transmitted to Apple. That's how Find My works.
And it’s sole purpose is to help people find their devices, it’s saved many people i know from a very large catastrophe.
Unfortunately I can only use windows 10/11 as AMD has no driver for RAID on Linux. https://www.amd.com/en/support/chipsets/amd-socket-strx4/trx...
Using Asus hyper with 4 nvme drives on RAID. Anyone else in this situation?

Thanks for the update!

That AMD-"raid" is Software too..the same as linux.
~pure Hardware raid's never need drivers, because you tell the hardware (raid controller) to present the hard-disks as one (or whatever you want) device to the Operating-system. Some management tools are sometimes used (start raid scrubbing etc).
BTW: Don't use Raid5 if you don't have a UPS (if you use software raid), or a battery buffered write-cache (hardware raid) aka write-hole:
