Paint3D is actually fine.
what about cortana? and telemetry? Let me get rid of those and I'll upgrade happily
This actually looks like a great patch. I can finally uninstall junk like the People app and also get some performance back for my ageing chip. These are the sort of patches I like!
You might want to fix a typo. It's not "Reptoline", but "Retpoline" or "Return trampoline".
If they did that, and also changed it so that users have choice over what gets installed and when, as in Windows 7, THEN I'd be interested.
EDIT: And ideally if it also allowed the uninstallation of those listed by Faiakes below as not being able to be removed despite being on the new build.

OK, just tried it (build 18262) but can't get rid of:
- Game bar
- Get help
- Maps
- Messaging
- Edge
- Photos
- Microsoft Store
- People
- Xbox Game Speech Window (but can uninstall Xbox finally)
- Your Phone
Yes, that's it!

I have been uninstalling most of Microsofts bloat such as maps, store etc since the day I upgraded to Windows 10 during the free upgrade period using Ccleaner. It won't uninstall Cortana and you can't fully disable it but t got rid of som much junk that I didn't want.
I tend to disable as many services as possible and as many start up processes as possible. I'll be quite happy to get rid of as much of this rubbish as I can. I don't worry about laptops, etc but my main PC is kept as bloat free as possible. I see my main PC as being like a sports car - stripped down nearly to the point of inconvenience but overall performance is there. My laptop has all the convenience stuff on and I don't mind if it takes a bit longer to boot up or load something.
Fair enough. At this point they still have a chance with me as Windows 7 is still supported and I haven't had a need that forced me to switch yet (such as getting a newer system that Windows 7 is blocked from providing updates for), but the time left to convince me is shrinking further and further.
