   I have the widgets turned off on the Win11 laptop. The weather might be   
   useful but if the mouse gets anywhere near the widget I get a big popup of   
   shit I absolutely do not need.   
      
   That's my problem with Win11. I don't want to log into One Drive, Teams,   
   and so forth. I don't want seemingly random popups hawking wares. I don't   
   want AI. I've used Windows for years in addition to Linux and didn't mind   
   it but it is now completely enshitified.
