Has anyone used this modded windows OS?

I've seen quite a few videos on youtube of it performing waaay better than normal windows & using less resources than even tiny10/11 windows.

I've seen quite a few people say they've used it for years with no issues or accounts stolen, but then I've also seen a few people claim that their version had malware on it- however I've also found that apparently there's fake sites with malware infested versions of it floating around & apparently there's versions of it on piracy sites that come pre-loaded with a bunch of pirated games, so perhaps those are where those malware reports are coming from.

I've used it on my netbook to squeeze out some extra fps. Alot of stuff is disabled/cut so may not be for everyone but in certain scenarios it can bring life back to an old machine. No malware or anything I've used it for a year or so. I can see how people would be warry, seems like alot of slavjank but it's legit.
