Don't get me wrong. I am not advocating Windows here.

Win10 is a mixed bag. I like the virtual desktops feature, I like the
regular updates (although they're horribly slow & leave a ton of stuff
behind each time).

It's far from free of apps, sadly; in fact, it's distinctly bloated.
It's also very hard to remove all the "Modern" applets -- you need
Powershell scriplets to do it.

If I had to use it, and I am happy that I don't, I'd remove everything
bundled and then visit www.ninite.com and install a selection of
Windows FOSS apps to replace them.

Much as Ubuntu used to provide Windows installers for all the apps
that came with it on the CD. I suppose only those with long memories
will now remember that.

And most might respond with amazement or incredulity were one to point
out that Ubuntu, with much the same set of apps as today, used to fit
onto a single 650MB CD with enough room to spare to _also_ include
Windows installers for all its main 3rd-party apps.

What has happened over the last 16 years?

How come that much the same functionality now takes a few gig?

I know there's more driver support, a bit more functionality in server
stuff -- containers etc. -- but there really isn't 10× as much...
