AtlasOS is an optimized version of Windows, designed for enthusiasts and gamers. Experience faster performance, better privacy, and enhanced gaming capabilities.
Impressive, they managed to find a decent OS under all that garbage?
I’m happy running Linux, but I think there are three possible outcomes for Atlas:
Microsoft’s legal department is going to come down on the project with the full legal weight of copyright laws, and tie developers’ efforts and energy up in red tape.
Microsoft will just quietly build obstacles into Windows updates that makes Atlas maintenance next to impossible, or just hard enough to wear developers out.
Atlas will just putter out on its own due to lack of interest, because users are either too complacent to abandon Windows or already eyeing more established alternatives like Mac or Linux.
It’s few Microsoft can do legally, there is no change in the OS as such, you need a valid and legal Windows installation to use AtlasOS, they can’t avoid the user choice using other services and tools instead of the inbuild ones, in updates there are only important security updates, which are not a problem if you continuo using the Defender (recomendable).
Atlas exist since ~10 Years, also there isn’t a problem with it, same as with the apps to debloat Windows, which also exist since a lot of years.
Windows as such is a decent OS, it’s same as others based on Unix. It’s bad because the garbadge, telemetries, AIs and “Services to improve the user experience” in it by default. It’s the same as with stock Android respect de-googled Android and forks, it’s not Android which is bad (it’s in essence Linux), it’s all the crap Google put in it.
