Using windows 11 got me to switch my home PC to Linux at the start of the year so I have them to thank or that. My work PC just got updated from W10 to W11 and so far it’s so much worse than I was expecting, purely based on performance/buginess alone. I have no problems with most the features but it all feels one step forward two steps back when the whole system seems to be much less responsive
This is real petty, but on my work laptop, moving from W10 to W11 removed the popup calendar in the taskbar on secondary monitors and however many years later, it still messes me up every day.
Same. I got sick of Windows late last year and swapped to Linux in October/November.
What was your experience like?
I put my work computer on Linux(NixOS) lol. When I do IT for users on Win 11 I’m constantly like "Why is this so slowwww? ".
I’m just waiting for escape from tarkov to send the email to battle eye to enable Linux support and I’ll throw windows into the sun
I’ll stick with Win10 and third party protection u til my GPU, games or gaming related apps/peripherals stop working. Until then, I see no reason to upgrade, even if they were to pay me to do it.
Probably not a good idea once they stop security patches for win10.
Currently, in my head, moving to win11 (assuming you wont use linux) makes the most sense instead of foregoing security patches (whenever they stop).
Really? Sorry for my ignorance, but isn’t it possible to keep a secure system with malware software and firewalls? I might have to reconsider and just hate MS for moving that quickly to a halfassed OS :(
The second Windows 10 expires, I’m switching to the Penguin
welcome!
to get started, download a linux OS .iso and write it to a usb with Balena Etcher. boot to that usb by selecting it in your bios/uefi (restart the computer and smash the del key a whole bunch to get there) :)
its basic, but this is the part that can confuse those who arent so tech savvy and want to switch <3
Can’t believe it’s been 4 years since Windows 11. It feels like only yesterday when I was a Windows Insider for Windows 10 and Windows Phone 10.
Not mine anyways lol 🐧
