I'm a #Geek

An Unabashed Geek at that. As much as I like the way Apple looks and feels, I detest that you are locked into it. The same goes for Windoze.

With GNU/Linux you have multiple #Desktops. #Gnome is probably the most popular (but please for Gawd's sakes don't quote me). Then there's #KDE (which makes me think of Windoze). Then #Mate, #Cinnamon, #Budgie, #LXQt, #Deepin. These are just a few. Each has it's own pros and cons (LXQt is extremely light on resources but not very customisable). Deepin has incredible graphics and animations, but is extremely resource hungry. Mate uses Gnome 2 (because the author hated Gnome 3). etc etc etc...

Why would I pay for Windows 11 with AI crap I don't want when Linux is free?

Clearly, Microsoft has not thought this through.

Well you can find a list of Libreboot compatible hardware here. I feel like your biggest issue, especially if you are relying on a prebuilt Windows PC, is all the bloatware they come with on top of Windows itself.
