32 is bare bones for Windows nowadays! You actually need it. I'm at 10 GB just running nothing with Windows, not even starting a game. Omg and I thought fast boot, was faster until I went to Linux. I also feel like Windows somehow made my motherboard boot slower as well.
Windows has enough money to make it's DE experience better but they don't care out it's end user.

    They only care about siphoning our data and advertising to us. And vibe coding apparently. Such a buggy pos these days.

    Well I dual boot & the preview update they sent for explorer crashes every time it tries to install during a restart & it says something went wrong, then takes another 10 mins to clear that. Honestly don't login to Win 11 unless I'm playing a multiplayer anticheat game at this point. And I used to bleed green/blue. I had the Windows phone, Xbox all of then, a gaming PC & laptop. I'm degoogling my phone & using Linux for everything else. I still have the switch as well. They got me there with Zelda
