Pretty sure you can still pick "Other sign in methods > Domain join" and create a local account that way.

Only on the pro version, which is the only windows version people should be using. Or they should (Puts on fingerless gloves) switch (Adjusts fedora) to (Sips mt dew) LINUX

Fair point about the pro version. And yeah, I've been using my Steam Deck (Arch w/ KDE Plasma) docked to my tv as my daily use PC for a couple months now and I don't miss Windows at all.

Literally as soon as steam releases OS 3 to desktop users. (No solicitors please).

Also wouldn't it be sips M'dew whilst wearing a fedora?

Yeah, but does the Shift+F10 and running OOBE/BYPASSNRO still work?

It's such a dark design pattern. Like you'd better not be scared of a command line interface or the reboot that comes after, but you still can technically skip the registration process... I assume T_T
