And if you use Linux you have to jump through hoops to install (non-steam) games. I know, just yesterday I had to search a working tutorial for installing Fall Guys.

- Comment on Windows PCs can't sleep properly, and Microsoft wants it that way 11 months ago:
You didn’t get it. It’s because I didn’t have enough disk space, my partition was too small. I also deleted files from the trash and it works.

This also happens on Linux, after 20 seconds, my computer just wakes up 😠 (definitely not because I don’t have enough disk space)

Manually removing the files is still an option 😈
I don’t understand why they won’t allow it even with the command line. People who hate Edge and want to uninstall it to free up disk space should be able to. They will never use it anyway (max accidentally).

- Comment on You can remove Edge and Bing Search on Windows 11 even if you don't live in Europe 11 months ago:
They regenerate after an update, there is also a way to remove Edge on Windows by manually running the uninstaller from the terminal with some options, but that doesn’t change the fact that it’s not easy and you can’t just uninstall it like any other app.

Does this also impact Apple, will they also need to allow removing Safari? If yes, is it possible that they might allow removing other things like iMessage and Apple TV?
- Comment on You can remove Edge and Bing Search on Windows 11 even if you don't live in Europe 11 months ago:
Yes. They should allow removing apps like Safari and, as you said, Apple TV, iMessage, and other non-basic computer utilities, then downloading them again from the App Store. On an unrelated note, I turn off SIP also to change the icons of system apps.

You should first dual-boot. It means you will keep your Windows partition and when you turn on your computer, you can choose Windows or Linux to boot up.
To choose a distro, there are plenty of YouTube reviews. I’d recommend Ubuntu, Pop!_OS or Linux Mint for a beginner. Dual-booting is easy on these distros, you just have to select install alongside Windows and then how big you want the Linux partiton to be.
For putting on a USB, download the ISO of your chosen distro, and use BalenaEtcher to flash to your USB (it will erase everything from your USB, so back your data up). To boot into the USB, reboot while holding press Escape, and see if that brings up a boot device picker. If it doesn’t, try other keys at the top of your keyboard or press the restart button in Windows 8+ while holding down Shift, wait for it to load, and in the blue menu, ho into Select boot device (or whatever it’s called) and select the USB.
Before installing, you should check out if stuff works on Linux like audio (you can test these out because you are on a live system booted from your USB), and if it doesn’t, check if you find a fix online, but everything should work fine.
For the software alternatives (if they aren’t on Linux), I recommend alternative.to, and learn the new apps. When you feel comfortable, you can then move all your files to Linux and completely delete Windows (you should BTW be able to see your Windows partition from a files app).

I feel the same. It will probably be more random than shorts in which the algorithm decides what to give you.

Seeking is avaliable on the mobile app. You can also do this trick on desktop Firefox where you click the picture-in-picture button and press back or forward to jump 5 seconds.
