Political relevance be damned, anyway...
You can press SHIFT+F10 keys to open Command Prompt.
Execute OOBE\BYPASSNRO command then.
After this, setup will reboot the computer and after reboot, you’ll get a new option I don’t have Internet or Continue with limited setup to skip the Internet requirement.
I did this when installing Windows 11 for a friend, was also my first experience installing Windows 11 as well. Having to open a command line during the installation process really nullifies the "Windows easy" and "linux hard" stereotype.
Thats the thing, you dont HAVE to install without a MS account. That is your choice.
Most people don't care and create an MS account anyway. And they don't have to use any command line.
Also a single command line still does not compare to Linux.
Nothing is nullified
Ubuntu installer is like 4 clicks.
And it boots to a fully updated install if you connect to the network in the wizard, unlike Windows which might take as much as a full business day to update itself depending on the age of the install medium
Same for Linux Mint I guess
