The Danger of Microsoft Pluton
You really nailed it with that car analogy.
Most "car people" would agree that changing the oil in your car is super easy. To me, it is not easy. It's not something I'm willing to do, even though I know the steps of how to do it. I just don't know what I don't know. When I have my oil changed, the mechanic tells me what I should be concerned about. He tells me what upcoming work I need to have done, how much it will cost, and what could happen if I don't do it. He has experience, expertise, and specialized tools. He had knowledge gathered over years to be highly proficient in his profession.
I could do those things. I could read, and listen, and learn. I could be under my car every day learning new things about how to install this, or replace that. But I don't really have the drive or inclination to do so. I'd rather leave it to the pro. I also have the added novice-worry of screwing something up, and hurting myself or others as a result. I don't want that kind of pressure. I don't want my car breaking down while doing some long journey - I just want it to run when I need it to run, without any scary warning lights coming up on my dashboard.
To bring the analogy back to computers, I still know people - people in their 20's or 30's - who do not know how to copy and paste with keyboard shortcuts. I will sit there and see them highlight, right-click, click copy, move their cursor, left-click, right-click, choose paste. I'll tell them how much time they could save if they "just did ..." and get a basic "Yeah...I just don't really care though, ya know? This works." The thing is, there is no investment on their part to want or need to do that more efficiently. They get by well enough with not bothering.
They could get super into computers, and learn something as "technical" as `git clone https://github.com/some/repo` and follow the process to configure and run a script. They could learn to do those things. But they don't really have that time to invest in it, or don't have that passion for it, or have a professional investment in needing to do it.
They want it to work. They want to not get hacked. They want to not have to think about computers at all. Computers are the interface to do "the thing" more easily. And if the computer breaks? They want it fixed so it won't happen again. The computer "does the internet thing". And I can respect that because they focus their energy into knowledge into other topics that I don't have a clue about, the same way I don't have a clue about cars, even if I know oil changes are "easy".

Windows 11 will just randomly freeze at times for a few seconds, go blank and come back
Stuff has been uninstalled from Settings and Control Panel and CTT's Utility (to enable some settings I would've enabled through Terminal commands already) and Sycnex's Debloater (to uninstall some apps) have been used. It's nothing major as I only uninstalled apps I could download from the store if necessary and made sure not to delete any major system components except Edge maybe. I have read through every menu and setting any of these utilities has brought up thoroughly to ensure I didn't do so. I believe I did my research before enabling/disabling a setting.

Ask HN: How do you “clean” Windows from all bloatware?
I've used this script for every new install of Windows and it makes the experience quite a bit better: https://github.com/Sycnex/Windows10Debloater .
17k stars on GitHub so lots of people agree.
