    Bro the last 3 times I’ve installed windows, I clicked one button, made a cocktail, and occasionally returned to click a button and by the time I finished my second drink it was done.

      That is also exactly how you install Fedora. They’ve stripped away so many options and turned it into a nextnextnextdone thing. I’m not here to advocate that people should swap to Linux. I am just frustrated when the myth that linux is hard to install keep getting thrown around. I often get the impression that people talk about linux with 10+ year out of date information.

      You need to sign in to your Microsoft account - and if you don’t want to do that there’s a convoluted workaround. You need to untick all the tracking they enable by default. Opt-out of copilot and some other shit. It hasn’t been one button and walk away in a long time.

      I’ve installed quite a few linux distros and windows versions for my job, and windows 10+ has one of the worst user experiences. Of course this doesn’t include arch or any other “build it yourself” distro.
