    Some of us have to do tech support for people stuck in these situations. I don’t personally have problems with Onedrive but I’m also the type who is able to figure out installing Windows without a Microsoft account.

      Yeah. Needing to install using an MS account is a massively consumer hostile practice.

      I see it as Microsoft saying: “this is what’s best for you, you’ll do things this way” and giving you absolutely no way to bypass it (unless you’re like me or you… And know the tricks to do so).

      “Safe from pain, and truth, and choice, and other poison devils” …
