Easy if you have a Microsoft account. I don't.

You can get around the account requirement with one or two commands during the install. Should be trivial for anyone capable of running Linux

I was trying to explain to someone why I used Linux and their reasoning for not wanting to was because they didnt want to have to input commands. I told them how I don't have to input any commands to get Linux installed but do to get windows installed and they didnt believe me

I don't understand this. I've had two win 11 installations over about 2 years and I've never had a Microsoft account or had to log in to one. Am I doing something wrong?

Nah you are using it correctly. I would advise everyone to avoid the Microsoft store, I would advise everyone to avoid the play store and app store as well, but Apple showed Google and Microsoft that they can make a lot of money locking people into using them

You missed the change where you need an account.

Couldn't you also make a throwaway ms account?
