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.
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.
Nah, 10 was fine for the most part. But it already has an announced EoL.
I work with some servers on an air-gapped network, when you first click the start menu after a reboot it can take a couple of minutes to let you do anything.
Lol. Yeah I installed pihole and noticed how much shit the laptops and phones are sending every frigging minute, even when they are not being used.
We don’t use windows in my home though, just some people are on macs. They don’t seem to freeze or slowdown with pihole being used.
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. :)
