Yeah, I removed OneDrive at least twice and they “accidentally” reinstalled and reactivated it on two updates.
The second time I found out about it because I got a warning that they had uploaded too many of my files against my consent, my allotted cloud storage was full, and if I wanted access to my files I had to pay up.
I removed it again, then there was another update. Guess whose files “accidentally” got held for ransom again?

We say ‘accident’ we mean ‘test bench for public backlash’ before we roll it out to every user.

I can’t speak for Bazzite but coming from SteamOS it’s arguably better than under Windows.
The only games that don’t work are the ones with the ridiculous kernel level anti cheat.
