A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Gaming computer, I dropped Win11 because with PiHole blocking windows analytics, the whole OS slows down. Just opening the start menu took ~4 seconds with Ryzen 5950x on an m2 ssd with 64GB of RAM. Everything was sluggish.
That's extremely unoptimized by Microsoft just trying to phone home, holy hell!
Again, I would suggest using Windows 10 for those. Unless I am mistaked and 10 too begins crying if it can't see mommy Microsoft.
Nah, 10 was fine for the most part. But it already has an announced EoL.
Lol. Yeah I installed pihole and noticed how much shit the laptops and phones are sending every frigging minute, even when they are not being used.
We don't use windows in my home though, just some people are on macs. They don't seem to freeze or slowdown with pihole being used.
