Long story short: That pop-up you get when you open Firefox (or whatever other browser) for the first time asking you if you want to make it your default browser won't work anymore. They're forcing you to go through their convoluted control panel where you have to change it like 20 times for each file extension.
I swear to god if it wasn't for some very specific software programs that I NEED to use that simply isn't available for Linux (nor Wine) I would have gone 100% Linux many years ago.
I've done it before, it works but it's also a pain in the ass especially when my master boot record went missing mysteriously like three fucking times. I just do dedicated rigs now instead.
I've been using a streamed pc service for windows things and it is nice. It isn't the cheapest thing ever and it eats data at incredible rates, but if you have uncapped internet and a cost-permitting reason to need windows it works, at least in my experience

I once had the biggest of my boot drives eat the smaller one and then die because there were a lot of duplicate files and indexes.

You and me both! It is getting more and more frustrating.
Just wait until they introduce hard-coded, built in AI into WIndows 11, that's when the "fun" will really start.
