Since Linux does not seem to work on my laptop (I have spent hours trying to find a fully functioning distro, it doesn't exist yet for Snapdragon), I am curious if there are different things I can do to keep Windows from tracking all of my shit.

I know that's impossible but minimizing it is desirable for me, at least. I don't want CoPilot, I don't want advertisement pop ups, anything like bloatware I fucking hate it, as we all do.

So pls let me know what you do to minimize this shit. Apps, things I should uninstall, settings I should change. If I have step by step instructions I'm not afraid to use command prompts since I got a little bit of experience with that while trying to install Linux.

Thank you all in advance for helping this luddite

It also doubles as a software manager so there's no need to go onto the internet and download all the software you need individually.
