Windows has so much garbage overhead via telemetry, etc. Glad to see someone quantifying how detrimental it is.

AVs on windows also do impact disk latency a lot.

Not to also mention the outdated filesytem

We should rename NTFS to OTFS now.

For real - it would be AWESOME if you could install windows on ZFS or btrfs or whatever

You'd still be running Windows though so why bother

While I agree that Linux is generally better, there are some use cases outside of gaming that work better in (or are required to use for one reason or another) Windows.

That has a hell of a lot of disclaimers around reliability, and I’m not seeing anything about it being able to actually host the operating system on the filesystem itself, or any way to roll this into the installer itself
