Does the Bloat and Spyware make games run faster?

[–] PassingThrough@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Sure does! Especially after you buy extra RAM, a faster CPU, and an AI accelerator so CoPilotana can learn all about you and play them for you! /s

But seriously, a lot of it can be disabled with some initial tweaking and use of the policy editor, or one of those ShutUp tools to do it for you. After you trim it all out it’s usually fine, with the bonus of games not requiring obscure tweaks and usually just working.

At the end of the day that’s what keeps people coming back or never leaving. The games are built for windows, run easily on windows, and the devs will support if it does not.

For Linux you must learn something new, make continuous effort to tweak and correct issues, and find interactive support only on obscure Discords or Reddit because there aren’t even any good forums anymore.

This is just about the games mind. Next we get into the accessory market, with the Windows based related softwares….

The bad headline should read “enough computers with windows 11 have been purchased to make it the biggest flavor of windows to play games on.”
