I’d love to know what windows figures would be like with a stripped down guts ripped out windows, such as revi.cc.
pls dont suggest this blatantly obvious russian/us/chinese surveillance tool jesus chriat pls dont tell me people actually use this... if youre worried about security use a hardened linux distro this is just crazy
No, this one is different. It's not an ISO you download (those are extremely sus and you would be right to be skeptical of them), but instead an open source set of scripts you apply to an existing Windows OS.
Edit: see my comment below, it seems to be partially closed source.

Care to explain ?
Not OP, but I assume it’s got something to do with entrusting an unaudited, closed-source 3rd party to significantly alter your OS.
There are plenty of similar tools available, which are both open source and can be run by the end-user over a stock Windows installation.
But it is open source …

The playbook is for Windows AME of which there are some other playbooks and is also open source.
Although it seems like there’s a cloudflare issue accessing their self hosted git but I’m pretty sure I’ve seen it before 🤔
There’s also the unattended scripts and other windows debloaters that can be ran. My original point being I’d like to see a stripped down windows 11 vs steamos
This is only one half of the open source. Those scripts are not poweshell or bash scripts, but instead something simimar to Ansible, run through the Windows AME wizard.
Which I cannot find the source code for. Great!
I think this is the command line onlu version, but the GUI versiom appears to be closed source.
How does revi compare to AtlasOS?
Very similar. I preferred Revi in my testing last year as there was less added stuff and wasn’t as “gamers fuck yeah”
I might check it out for my Windows VM then. Thanks.
