I only recently found out about Tiny11. Anyone used it/turned it into a daily driver for gaming/coding/media?

I personally do not trust any modded Windows ISOs that I have not created myself.

I mean, it has a batch script you can read and run yourself.

Fair enough, I wasn’t aware of that.

It will work, but Tiny11 lacks a lot of things. Will be useful, but some applications you expect to work will not.

If you are tight on resources, consider keeping Windows 10 or switching to a Linux distribution.

Gaming computer, I dropped Win11 because with PiHole blocking windows analytics, the whole OS slows down. Just opening the start menu took ~4 seconds with Ryzen 5950x on an m2 ssd with 64GB of RAM. Everything was sluggish. I'm back on Arch, but there are a few BattleEye/EAC games that don't work I'd like to play again.

That's extremely unoptimized by Microsoft just trying to phone home, holy hell!

Again, I would suggest using Windows 10 for those. Unless I am mistaked and 10 too begins crying if it can't see mommy Microsoft.

I’d strongly suggest AtlasOS over Tiny11 once the Atlas team have finished adding 11 support- it’s really solid and does a great job of improving system stability and removing the bloatware/tracking without compromising important features and backend stuff.

Never heard of this either, thanks! Any idea how well Battleeye/EAC work on it?

They work great!! Haven't had any issues with them on my end. :)
