Despite always opting out of onedrive, one day it somehow activated itself, converted all my personal files into web shortcuts, and then complained about being out of space.

All my stuff is backed up to a synology so it wasnt a huge ordeal, but there are horror stories around the net about onedrive interactions.

Same. I need a Windows machine for legacy .NET projects and the pro version just works.

I think most problems stem from home versions of windows.

Still prefer my Linux machine tho.

Yup. Home version is full of gadgets with news, weather, offers, AI stuff in the task bar... feels claustrophobic.

I use various versions of Windows 11, mostly LTSC because I'm lazy. Otherwise I'll do a light debloat with something like ShutUp10 to turn off the majority of the annoyances. I'm able to deal with any snafus from this so it's not an issue for me.

No real issues to report. Various OEM and custom machines run fine. Ever since Windows 7 I'd say I haven't ran into major issues or even many minor ones.
