Help Setting up a Windows 11 Machine for a Kid (lemmy.world)

submitted 4 weeks ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I'm currently setting up a windows 11 machine for a kid and want to make sure that their traffic is easily monitored. I've debloated much of it. Normally, I'd get rid of Edge and put on Firefox. But I noticed that Microsoft Family has the ability to monitor website usage.

I was wondering if there's similar functionality with Firefox or Chrome.

I'm most familiar with the iOS parental toolkit.

Finally, I want to let him have some access to some games, but I don't want him to purchase any games yet. I'm open to suggestions to getting this aspect locked in as well. I was just going to mimic my set up with Playnite. But I haven't really dug into it yet.

Cheers! Robolox is a no go for now. Minecraft is okay, but only for friends that he knows in real life.

But I agree, discussions and trust are the most important. I monitor so he doesn't stumble upon anything and if he does, we can have a discussion.
