In the stream today Linus mentioned that he wants to do a video on Windows tweaks to make Windows more usable (Dan called it "De-Windows Windows) like removing web search from start search. If they end up doing that, they should check out and possibly showcase Winaero Tweaker. It's a program that's basically what I would describe as an improved GUI for the windows registry.
All it is is a list of registry tweaks that won't be in Settings like removing internet search from the start menu, or removing start menu ads, disabling telemetry, removing Microsoft account requirements, bringing back the old context menu, stuff like that there's a ton of options.
And if you don't feel comfortable letting a third party program mess with your registry, there are links in every tweak to tutorials that show you how to do it yourself too.
