- Amelabs Privacy+: https://docs.amelabs.net/privacy/_plus.html
I use a Windows VM for apps not available on Linux and just want to cut out all the telemetry possible.
AtlasOS is installed as a Ameliorated Playbook and makes a ton of opinionated changes that aren’t privacy or necessarily performance related. Disabling the Windows 11 right click menus in favor of the legacy one, disabling window shadows, changing the wallpaper, etc. Privacy+ looks appealing, I wanna know if anyone has tried both and can tell me differences, like if one or the other improves privacy more.
A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.

IMO they’re putting makeup on a pig in both instances. I’d rather futz with WINE before I resort to a Windows VM. Some also had good success with ReactOS.
Could you please use the cross-post feature instead of making a separate post in each community? That way our front-ends can consolidate multiple cross-posts into one post instead of it being listed multiple times.
Honestly, doing it your way looks like spam. This is what I see in my feed:
Oh sorry, I had heard that was fixed awhile ago but apparently not.
What I don’t like about lemmy crossposts is having the whole post text inside block quotes, and sometimes isn’t formatted properly. I think that and showing a link to the original post is bad design, like why would it matter if a post is a crosspost or not?
