    Getting a second drive just for windows I think is a good approach. If you were to do so, it's important that you remove all other drives while installing windows, otherwise the Windows installer will put its boot files into whatever existing EFI partition it finds.

    Then using something like https://github.com/Raphire/Win11Debloat you should be good to go with a relatively clean setup.

    To have a local account, I use Rufus to setup the usb installer in a way that it automatically creates the local account, and it can also disable the secure boot and tpm requirements from the installer if you want. Though I think rufus is a windows program only. I know there's the "OOBE" approach for the local account, but I haven't done that before. That could be an option too

    It mentions it fixed bluetooth issues with certain devices, I wonder if it's related to what I'm experiencing on regular fedora KDE (and EndeavorOS too) with a kernel version 6.9.3, CachyOS kernel on fedora, Liqourix on EndeavorOS, where my game controller will not connect to Bluetooth unless I restart the bluetooth service or pair the controller again.

    With Fedora's default kernel which is currently 6.8.11 I don't have this issue. Honeslty I don't know what's up, and from a quick search I couldn't find people with the same issue. I'll search again later just in case

    One pet peeve of mine is how in Windows 10 switching between virtual desktops was flawless, and somehow in Windows 11 they fucked it up. At first it had no animation when switching, the taskbar kind of glitches. Now it has an animation but it's kind of delayed and the taskbar still kind of glitches, it seems to reload or something. Kinda crazy honestly

    I tried it out for a while and I think a new feature? is that you can control de brightness of the monitor through Plasma. Cool for one monitor but I have 2 and one is brighter than the other at a given brightness %, so it got a bit annoying. I didn't look further into it but when 6.1 is released on Fedora I will probably need to.

    Additionally the SDR colors when HDR is turned on looked better overall. Better than Windows was able to do even. Awesome stuff
