If you want to get things your way, I suggest using a distro that’s not as opinionated. Arch and Gentoo seem like good options. Never tried Clear or bare-metal Alpine, but I assume they are similar.

I did, not that different. To clarify, I accept things on Linux I just don't want that on windows because it is a mostly solved problem that does not need the complication. It only introduces a false sense of stability. The endless sea of windows software makers will not suddenly stop their development/deployment practices.

I mean on Linux you have the source and everything is debuggable but imagine 10 apps needing 10 versions of the same software. If it comes to this, it will be a fork moment except you can't fork freaking windows!! Stop trying to make windows Linux and Linux windows. They are both great for their uses, this childish war where one or the other needs to be the only way is silly. This silliness is how we have one browser to dictate everyones needs now.
