    entire home tab is just ad space and can be disabled
    or just upgrade to enterprise, comes with no ms 365 ads and the home tab is disabled out of the box.
    you’ll get literally zero ads or bs like onedrive in built-in apps, and even anti features like ms account login can be disabled (os will just skip right to local account creation)
