Theyâve been installing the New Outlook for some time now, at least on 11. Itâs installed by default, and you have to remove it, for sanity reasons. Sometimes it comes back, after awhile. Normal users are genuinely confused by this, as it is a completely different program, lacking features of Outlook that they use, unsupported by webmail or New Outlook. Yet Outlook prompts them to switch, implying that itâs an actual replacement, something MS conveniently doesnât mention.

I used to love NLiteOS back in the days. This sounds like a nice replacement.

I used the AME 11 playbook, and it made the Windows experience more palatable for sure.
Least impactful: ReviOS playbook (doesn't remove quite as much as AME)
Medium impactful: AME 11 playbook (removes more components than Revi)
Most impactful: Atlas OS playbook (removes the most, "secures" or "hardens" Windows, will have to do manual driver installs with this)
Iâm happy with my Garuda Linux these days.

Windows 11 at this point should only be used on a virtual machine so itâs contained and tucked away unless your in a jam and are forced to use it.
Linux or BSD should be your primary OS and at this point in life, if your not at least using some version of linux, there is no hope for you. Yet another soul lost to the system

Hey, if you want AI gone, you can always relive the 90ies 
So I take it, you want to defeat AI with more AI? To me, thats like saying we need more government to defeat government so therefore more government is the solution to all problems.
I will show you how to stop big tech from imposingâŚfor example here is an AI problem:
