If I was a malicious actor and I saw how vehemently people defended the usage of random scripts that claim to debloat Windows, MAN!Some of them deactivate Windows Defender... UAC... It would be so easy as a malicious actor to get in on this recent trend...

@ioletsgo@wetdry.world Whatever OS you're on, don't run random scripts without reading and understanding them lol.

@ioletsgo@wetdry.world When I was still using Win10 I used this to debloat it with the default preset.https://ameliorated.io/I thankfully don't need Windows anymore, cuz it just gets worse with every major release.

@dushman yeah but windows has bloat so I went onto Google dot com and I searched windows debloater and I installed the first script and now my computer says I'm part of a botnet now! Man I love being part of a community!

@dushman Unsolicited software advice is actually one of my biggest pet peeves. Please delete it.Why would you even think that a post being critical about Windows Debloat Scripts would solicit "Hey, this script is good tho I promise!" It's like selling snake oil to someone trying to raise awareness of the pseudoscience behind snake oil.

@ioletsgo@wetdry.world Hmm? It's not snake oil though. Modern Windows has a ton of useless things and telemetry running out of the box. This worked best at reducing idle resource usage from my own experience.

@dushman Also if I was a malicious actor I too would've put the source code in public, but would implement malicious attributes in the provided binaries.A project being open source means nothing in terms of the intent of the individual behind the project, it just means you have to be more clever with your implementation of the malicious aspects of the project.

@ioletsgo@wetdry.world Well I never said open source software can't be malicious. Just more trustworthy since auditing is a whole lot easier.would implement malicious attributes in the provided binariesLike yeah you can say this about any open source project ever. This one has been around for years and is quite popular. The devs never did anything sketchy.

@dushman telemetry sucks but you don't really know how "useless" stuff is until you have something that relies on it as a dependency hangs your entire system.It doesn't really reduce idle resources, cause if you have a computer that was made with competent components in the last 10 years you should be more than fine.

@ioletsgo@wetdry.world I mean the home editions have fucking Candy Crush preinstalled. Stuff like Edge, windows media player, groove or phone sync was useless to me cuz I never wanted to use them in the first place. Modern Windows absolutely has a bunch of useless software out of the box.

@dushman it's literally on the same level of snake oil that "download more ram" comes from, but instead of the idea that it's a failure on the user's fault for not having enough system resources, it's instead a failure of the software provider's fault.I fail to see how they are any different except one is seen as a joke while the other is seen as a way to squeeze more performance (which the comparisons are almost always in the error of margin) out of your system.

@dushman they don't run unless you launch them, I don't know how you can think that they impact idle resource usage unless you're equivocating two things that have no correlation

@dushman don't touch shit and don't run shit you don't know. As a security minded individual, Debloating Windows is one of the dumbest fucking things you can do.If you care so much about bloat, genuinely Linux is the better option for you. I care very little about "bloat" and I even make fun of people who claim any sort of user enhancement they dislike as bloat yet I still use Linux on a daily basis.And I enjoy my experience on Linux cause I don't give a shit about bloat.

There are mad people who put together a literal Windows 7 1:1 total conversion. If there were a debloated Windows 10 + one of those win7 total conversions then i'd consider reinstalling windows at least on the machine I use the least. Or i don't know, I could make one myself..

@dushman i used the steam_legacy build of half-life (you can still reach it via the Betas menu in the steam settings for the game). You might have to disable Steam Cloud for half-life and delete the cfg files for the game and fiddle with parameters after. After that, it just... works.
