I dual-boot Arch and Win11 (mainly for HDR), and I have no idea what you’re talking about. I haven’t had any AI forced upon me.
But to be fair, I made the Windows ISO in Rufus (to disable the Microsoft account requirement), and I also use O&O Shut Up 10 and StartAllBack. They’ve obviously been doing an excellent job of shielding me from Microsoft’s bullshit, cause I literally never have any of the problems with Windows that everyone is always complaining about here on Lemmy. There are no ads, no AI bullshit, no Start Menu BS. It’s mostly the same Windows I’ve known since 7, with some modern creature comforts added in over the years.

I can’t tell if you’re being sincere, or doing an “I use Arch by the way” bit, offering convoluted solutions to a non issue.
The former. I’d use Arch fulltime but HDR support in Linux is ass compared to Win11.
