You can't log into your Mac with your Apple account; you still need a local account created first, and it has its own login and password separate from the Apple ID associated with it (if any).

That's preferable to Windows 11 requiring a cloud account in my book.
I installed Windows 11 last year without cloud account.
Maybe because it's Pro version? I don't remember doing any incantation but it's possible that I didn't connect internet during installation.
It's not possible using the current install process, not even on Windows Pro (tested with a fresh install on a notebook that had a Windows 10 Pro OEM license registered/activated like is typical). The various hacks to trick the process don't work anymore.
