Windows 11 Debloat tools

I vaguely remember either on PTIO or Privacy Guides that there were some recommendations on debloat tools. I'm wondering what people are using these days to achieve this?

I like O&O ShutUp10++
For future installs, just get a copy of windows (10/11, depends on what you prefer) LTSC.

Comes with zero bloat preinstalled, it's refreshing
- LTSC by far the best way to use Windows, but W11 LTSC doesn't exist yet, It'll release next year source.
  
  I'll also suggest using a tool like Windows Privacy Dashboard to disable telemetry just in case.
  
  Windows Privacy Dashboard looks very interesting, I’m going to have to give it a go. Thank you!
  
  Does windows privacy dashboard interfer with like game anti cheat software? And other gaming related shit?

  You could just live boot a linux USB and mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1 ;) 😂
  
  Lol, I've already got a fedora server and desktop, a debian home theater PC, and some sort of Linux running on an old laptop (I think it's Ubuntu right now - I use whatever the current project needs). No windows in my household!

I used some config from the christitus winutil. The description and warnings are clear to understand.
