    Copy pasting my own comment and guide:

    I сrеаtеd а whоlе guіdе 2 уеаrs аgо, Кnоwіпg ехасtly thіs would happen with their “special” “security” chips like Pluton or proprietary form of TPM, and Al NPU chips that also exist on Google Pixels, for example. I will NEVER trust Google/Apple/Microsoft hardware. I also made this guide knowing in advance about the EOL for Windows 10, which still has over one year left.

    And to all the FOSS zealots going around saying use this or that favourite distro, STOP. They should be the focus, not you. Windows users need the most well community supported, LTS tier stable distro that everybody develops for as first or second preference. Ubuntu LTS with GNOME fits the bill best. This is how I selected my first distro 7 years ago when jumping from Windows 7 to Linux, and successfully mitigated my Windows usage. Now I am a Debian Stable user since last year, since I gained enough knowledge.
