Tested: Microsoft just debloated Windows 11 Search without Bing, and it's crazy fast

Windows 11 build 26300.8697 hides a toggle to remove Bing from Search. We tested it hands-on: faster results, cleaner UI, local files first.

Oh, is it fast?.. I doubt it. Still background services sucking up all the ram.

I love how the (mandated) Teams running on the (mandated) win11 work laptop is gobbling A GIGABYTE AND A HALF OF RAM all by itself. What the actual flapping fuck is that?

Disabling start up items with system config helps.
