Windows 11 Sends Tremendous Amount of User Data to Third Parties

I wonder if it would be illegal for MS to use their own DNS over HTTPS in order to evade being filtered out with let's say Pi-hole.

If I set DNS in network settings to be my own resolver I'm expressing my will to have all the queries my computer sent to that one resolver.

What I would like to see is all the lost/removed keyboard shortcuts from all their bundled apps from Win10, reinstated back into Win11.

It feels like dozens of keyboard shortcuts were just forgotten about or purposefully discarded in windows 11... maybe abandoned by the current generation of Microsfties (who I presume are mouse-only people?)

For example, who was the decision maker who decided nobody wants to keep on using "left/right arrow key and enter" to navigate a dialog box... make them use the mouse... or if they complain, let them use Shift+Tab instead of the left arrow key.

Also, change windows start button so that when you type we will add extra lag and bing recommendations... when I am just trying to open a locally installed program.

Win11 looked nice at first but after using it for work for the past 8 months I think it is a clunky laggy hog that forces me to learn a new set of weird shortcuts that require extra keystrokes and abandon the old muscle memory... or have to fumble around for a mouse because the old previously good keyboard shortcut no longer exists any more.

I reckon Win10 was a lot better.

Same here. GNU/Linux and other free and opensource software is our only way to regain our privacy, and general control over our computers. Corporate software is just more and more ads and spyware.
