Oh, I didn't mean to come across like that, I'm just saying you don't sound like the archetypal Windows user and even if you were you'd be in a tiny minority.

Which, yeah, tracks with what you're saying about both your use case and your profile. You sure don't sound like you're using your PC as the average end user does. The average user has not tried Linux, doesn't have those applications in mind, certainly has no set opinion on dual booting or UEFI. You ARE a bit of a unicorn there. As am I, I suppose, although I'm bouncing back and forth, not maining Linux, and not because I'm particularly dissatisfied with Win 11 specifically.

You are pretty archetypal on the OneDrive thing. Everybody has had an annoying experience with One Drive recently. I don't know that there are any other experiences to be had with OneDrive at all, to be honest.

True story, OneDrive is the one piece of Microsoft software where I always accept any prompts to give feedback or fill surveys.

My feedback is always the same: "This is the piece of software that has cost me the most money and work hours over the years"

This is an accurate assessment.
