From the post:

>Workflow. Productivity. Enablement. These are the holy words by which software companies sanctify their ever more plunder-hungry Viking raids on enterprise IT coffers. If only they were true. At least Vikings didn’t pretend to be offering monastery renovations and smart haircuts when they turned up. Microsoft, sad to say, is at it like gangbusters. So desperate is Redmond for your attention as a path to monetization, it has made the Windows 11 environment an ADHD horror show, full of distractions, promotions and snares. You can, with some work, rewire things behind the scenes to get rid of a lot of these, at least until things get quietly restored or re-enabled.
