I'm looking to start using Tails OS, but given the limitations of the platform, I don't want to just install it as my OS on my desktop and then be stuck with it.
But I've only ever installed an OS and then left it, I've not tried live booting or dual booting or whatnot. As I understand it, if I install it in the right way, I can have it on a memory stick and then plug it in and boot from there when I need it, but I'm unclear on the specifics.
If I follow the default instructions for installing Tails, does that set it up as a permanent OS or does that give me a USB and a way to use Tails on my desktop? How can I leave Windows as is and have Tails as an option?
You are supposed to use Tails from your USB device.
Tails is so fucking annoying. The refresh rate is shit, I can't set it to 120hz. GPU acceleration doesn't work, it's not smooth even scrolling up and down. Fan speeds stuck at 100% and can't change them: fucking noisy.
Why can't they make this shit user friendly. Linux really sucks.

Is that what the default install does? I can't tell from looking through the instructions, like I said, no experience with OS booting.

The idea with Tails is to make every single user conform to the same setttings in order to defeat the ability for suspicious entities to 'fingerprint' you based on your habits or config settings.
The 'issues' you are encountering are LITERALLY the purpose of Tails.
