Interesting, never heard of ReviOS before. Is there a list of changes they've made? I looked thru their site and couldn't see any such details their docs. I'd like to know what sets it apart from the likes of Tiny11 and Ghost Spectre Superlite etc.

    Here are the feature differences compared to regular Windows https://www.revi.cc/docs/faq/before/features/

    Revi is built using the Ameliorated Wizard. The CLI version is open source.

    I also considered using Tiny11 and Ghost Spectre but ended up with Revi because I don't really trust Tiny11 or Ghost Spectre. It's super easy for a malicious actor to include malware in those redistributed ISOs.

    Of course the same thing can be said about Revi but Revi also offers the option to run their Playbook on a regular install of Windows. Or you could make your own custom Windows Playbook with Ameliorated.

    Then there is also AtlasOS which, like Revi, is made using Ameliorated. I chose Revi because they had MS store and Windows defender still working and I like their custom tool. But according to Atlas developers, Windows Defender will be coming back in the next release.

    In the end I guess what it comes down to is who you trust. The safest bet would be to debloat Windows yourself.
