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 bullshit still happens with the latest version of Windows 11. I found that I had to demote Windows Boot Manager to a lower position in my EFI boot order, whereas removing it completely from my boot order and removing the boot entry cause Windows to install itself as first priority the moment it booted. I have not tried retaining the boot entry (skipping efibootmgr -b0000 -B) but removing it from the boot order (efibootmgr -o 0001).

Yeah that smells like it. It's like excuse me, whose computer did you think this is?
