Here are the feature differences compared to regular Windows https://www.revi.cc/docs/faq/before/features/
Revi is built using the Ameliorated Wizard. The CLI version is open source.
I also considered using Tiny11 and Ghost Spectre but ended up with Revi because I don't really trust Tiny11 or Ghost Spectre. It's super easy for a malicious actor to include malware in those redistributed ISOs.
Of course the same thing can be said about Revi but Revi also offers the option to run their Playbook on a regular install of Windows. Or you could make your own custom Windows Playbook with Ameliorated.
Then there is also AtlasOS which, like Revi, is made using Ameliorated. I chose Revi because they had MS store and Windows defender still working and I like their custom tool. But according to Atlas developers, Windows Defender will be coming back in the next release.
In the end I guess what it comes down to is who you trust. The safest bet would be to debloat Windows yourself.
