Microsoft inadvertently highlighted the benefits of using a local account over a Microsoft account on Windows 11 in a recent support page update.
Using a local account allows for offline sign-in, is independent of cloud services, and limits settings, files, and applications to a single device, enhancing privacy.
Despite these benefits, Microsoft requires internet access or workarounds for the initial setup of Windows 11, making it challenging to use a local account from the start.

If I could use Linux and still play multiplayer video games with anti cheat I would be so happy...

That is a dev/publisher issue. A lot of games work now. EAC is just a flip of a switch basically.

Yeah well it's a Dev/Publisher issue with the games I play regularly, so.

That's a bummer.
