I just wish they would have a package more suited for power users. I understand the why MS feels the need to treat consumers like idiots, some people truly are clueless and wouldn’t have touched a computer 10 years ago when more user freedom was given. But I don’t see the need to nerf the whole OS, and every variation, so that my nan doesn’t delete system32.
But with the SaaS route the MS are pushing, I’m sticking win Win10 LTSB for as long as I can. I can’t help but see things like pushing MS accounts on regular local users as anything other than laying the infrastructure for a more centralised SaaS approach.
I currently run an Unraid server on some old hardware, mostly as a NAS with some Docker containers. But due to the lack of processing power, I’ve actually been thinking about rolling my main rig and the server into one, then running Windows in a VM. Switching between OS easily would be good, being able to spin up virtual environments easily, and that way I can only use Windows for the things I need Windows for.
Now I’ve just gotta figure out, you know, how to actually do that!
