The amount of mental gymnastics to come up with (and justify) this is insane (sh.itjust.works)

Yeah I was about to say “since when” about MacOS, good thing you added the note. Windows is objectively just more data hungry than MacOS. The fact that you need to sign in to use the default calendar says it all on Windows

    Can confirm. Been using it without an account for several years. It still infuriates me that they ignore default app settings in favor of their own shitty unremovable apps.

    I have seen someone change default apps on Win11 recently. I'm a Linux user tho, but if I rememer correctly, it was in the Settings app, which is a bit confusing, because there is also a Control Panel app and both change mostly different settings.

    It ignores it? Doesn’t really happen for me, I have Smultron for my text editor and cog for music player, never has the default apps popped up instead. Are you sure you didn’t forget to click the “change all” inside the get info for whatever file you’re working on?
