Jumped the windows ship long ago. So glad I don't need to deal with this nonsense anymore.

To be fair, nobody actually NEEDS to deal with this nonsense. Windows works just fine without an activated key, literally the only downside is the "Please activate Windows" bug on your desktop. That's it, everything else works fine.

But yes, using Linux is also a great option.

I don't think system wide dark theme works without a key, although there are workarounds of course.
