Certainly it isn’t easy to debloat Windows, but possible to have the OS as is. For all default features Windows has, there are excelent, even better FOSS alternatives, updates can be limited to neede security updates, using Portmaster you can monitor and, if needed, blocking the traffic of every app and those from Windows itself. Windows is the most used OS and because of this well known by a lot of FOSS devs and communities, which made that Windows not only has the biggest catalogue of FOSS apps of all OS, but also a lot of those to gut, mod it and to show the middlefinger to the M$ spyware and telemetries, releasing even de-microsofted forks, like Windows X, React OS and probably others.
