Microsoft now activates 'Recall', a Copilot AI feature that's making your private emails & messaging obsolete by saving screenshots of these every few seconds. So what does this Windows update mean, is it really "opt in" and how can you turn it off? Let's take a deep dive!

This just works. It will disable a lot of windows garbage including co pilot and recall. You can also remove all Microsoft installed bloatware programs but I don’t recommend it on 11.
I dual-boot Kubuntu (--minimal-install; no snap fuckery) and Win11. I’m a contractor so the Win11 Pro side is technically my “business” installation. I’ve debloated quite a lot in Windows land, but still haven’t figured out how to get rid of CoPilot etc. I self-host a GPU cluster via a server running CasaOS/Ubuntu-Server LTS.
I need Win11 for work. Specifically, Grasshopper. I’ve tried alternatives. They suck.
Thus, debloat methods are very welcome.

I hope you got a work pc seperates from your private one?

That would be an enormous boost to Linux adoption.
