Microsoft really wants you to use a Microsoft account on Windows, to the point where it won't tell you how to make a Local one.
  • Microsoft removes guide on converting Microsoft accounts to Local, pushing for Microsoft sign-ins.
  • Instructions once available, now missing - likely due to company’s preference for Microsoft accounts.
  • People may resist switching to Microsoft accounts for privacy reasons, despite company’s stance.

    Maybe I wasn’t clear, I’m an Nvidia user too. I got on at the ground floor of Nvidia just beginning to support Wayland and it was rough. To be honest my desktop would straight up refuse to boot most distro installers, hints why my first real experience with Linux was archlinux.

    I understand X11 is perfectly usable but I just didn’t want to use a system with constant screen tearing, I also just ran into weird issues with x11 when it came to running anything more than basic apps. It’s always fun when your screen locks but can’t capture inputs because you had a game running.

    Probably the biggest reason I champion Wayland and I’m very excited for the upcoming explicit sync driver update. When wayland reaches maturity we’ll have a smooth experience on par with windows or Macos and more secure/private than both.
