The final straw for me and Windows was when I took the time to remove some annoying feature, cortana or edge, can't remember.

Then an update replaced my work.

It wasnt some 'uninstall program', but a multi-step process that involved registry editing.

I don't feel like I have control over Windows.

I don't know if it's still happening, but for a while windows updates were helpfully "fixing" the EFI boot partition (or maybe it was a boot firmware thing, I never figured it out) by making windows primary and breaking my Linux entry .

My friends would be like "do you want to play games?" and I'd be like "yeah hang on while I make some boot media so I can recover afterwards."

This happened on my new PC. I dual-boot Ubuntu with grub2. After Windows update, it booted into Windows immediately and bypassed grub. The EFI had been "fixed".

I worked around this by installing Ubuntu on a second SSD, then I can use my bios menu to change the boot device.
