Bloatynosy has now evolved into BloatynosyAI and it can disable AI features on Windows 11 or Microsoft Edge that a user may consider as bloatware. This new app works on Windows 10 as well.
As someone who uses windows to produce music, bloat is a huge issue, latencymon Is a great tool to check for programs and drivers that can cause audio dropouts.
And win 11 has been great, didn’t have to change much to get it to work. I tried several forms of Linux and it was too slow, driver issues, and plugins that were impossible to get working.
After leaving Macs (and Logic) (Apple software great, Apple iMac shit) switched to LInux over 10 years ago. Haven’t made music since (hardware in boxes). Fully learned that Linux music ain’t got that swing.
I recently heard that newer PipeWire has improved things a quite a lot. Haven’t tried it yet … not sure I remember how to play any instruments any more.

Win 10 was bad, but 7 was worse.
It really is a shame that music production is so painful in Linux. All I need to make the final switch

You could try bitwig, the daw is really good and has a native linux client for years.
Ya know … I’ll just give that a close hard look. Thanks!
