Linux advocates and people advancing European tech independence love Windows 11. 😃
I grew up with windows. windows makes using a pc easy, imo. However, Windows 11 is just the next iteration of enshitification. AI ingestion everywhere. Requiring accounts on a new OS. Who tf uses edge voluntarily. It turned me to Linux full-time, other than my work assigned laptop of course. I can get things to work pretty easily, people are just scared of command line and windows hides that from users who get intimidated by it. Instead of navigating to the website and downloading some potentially malicious software you can instead use a command to install that software. It’s so much nicer and cleaner.
Like some others said, I also generally liked windows for a long time. I liked 7, was concerned about 10, but that was generally ok. 11 compared to 10 is complete trash and I jumped to Linux. After using Linux daily for a few years, any time I have to touch my windows work laptop, it’s a really frustrating and tedious experience. The file explorer takes like 30-45 seconds to actually open and be usable, and the updates are so fucking long for no reason and happen at the worst times. There’s more, but those are the two I deal with as I try to touch it as minimally as possible nowadays
Haha I’m just like you there, I liked 7 as well, 10 was the last one I was ok to use, I used 11 at work first and downloaded Linux Mint that same week. Using it on a laptop, being so bogged down is hilariously, a lot like playing with a month old $200 smart phone, despite how great the specs you paid for are.
my laptop runs Windows 11, and thank god it has fans, because it uses them
I’ve used windows 3.11, 95, 98, me, xp, xp64, vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10, 11. It’s fine. Not perfect, none of them are, but i don’t see the train wreck that gets memed all over this platform either. Maybe it helps that I avoid the home skus and stick with pro for personal use?
I’m indifferent since I only use it on my work computer and any product I produce is theirs anyway so I don’t care where they store it or whether its secure.
went from 3.1 to 10, then noped out to LMDE about 3 years ago (had been 1/2 ass’d booting to Ubuntu for a couple years)
Have one legacy app i use on my gfs laptop that has W11, this is the last year I’d need to use it, what a fuxking mess ,it popped up asking me to change to Edge, did I want McAcee, and a 1/2 dozen other things… no, fuck you. Had to reboot twice as she’s away and lot of updates but that’s ok, I had a kernel update in LMDE yesterday that needed a reboot as well
and everytime FF updates on LMDE I reboot, or i lose my two side by side browser windows and 1/2 my opened tabs (only re-opens one browser window with one lot of tabs if I close down FF and re-open)
The last good version of windows was win2k.
Oh, hi, thanks for showing up this community, first time seeing. I may not be the one You seek tho.
Quite nice and fair rules You have here, to be civil and not rude, after all what win 11 did to us… community blocked. Boink boink.
