You could just put in a made up email and pass. I personally go with 123@fake.com

The more funny part of this statement is he's too fucking dumb to Google "set up windows 11 without Microsoft account" and follow exactly 3 steps to bypass the OOBE wizard.

I only keep twitter installed so I can check service outages.

Why do I need a twitter account to do that?

[–] Cyyy@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago

and at the same time he only lets you use twitter with an account and killed thirdparty apps on mobile.

This title makes me decide never to upvote any post linking to pcgamer site. And never site the site of course.

Can't believe I have to agree with this asshole for once.

Also, can't you just use pGina or GPO in place of a Microsoft account?

Who uses Windows 11 anyway? I've personally been running Linux since 2017, and rarely have to touch Windows these days.
