Yeah, no way. I will stick to Win10 and then going to Linux. M$ already was untrustworthy, but this OS takes the cake for "How to ruin all your user's trust"

Win11 is genuinely one of the worst OS experiences, and they keep making it worse. Everything is forced, opt-out, privacy invading, microsoft account-linked, reeks of surveillance and monetization of your activity. Pushing piles of subscriptions and ads on the average user. Increasing subscription prices exorbitantly.

Win11 will waste your time, spy on you, and make it harder to use every update. Honestly, you shouldn't pay for windows 11, they should pay you to use it.

Try SteamOS, Bazzite, or PopOS. All are great contenders for good gaming OSes that work out of the box.

Chris Titus Tool makes it tolerable, but I agree; Linux is the future

Windows has pretty much always sucked. Unfortunately, Linux also sucks.

I understand the sentiment, but it isn't an option to everyone.

linux is awful and will never, ever gain traction. steam os is a complete scam, cant play any popular game (try playing fortnight, one example). immediately install windows on any steam os device. the hordes of microsoft haters are just always hoping something can gain traction against it, no matter how utterly horrible that product is in linux case

windows 11 is amazing.

theres a reason valve makes installing windows on the (poor selling) steam turd a monumental pita. if they didnt, everybody would immediately do it.
Windows 11 is amazing eh? What was th3 update that locked out users keyboards and input devices? Why is Ms requiring higher end processors to run win11 when they clearly arnt necessary? Why is Ms pushing so hard for cloud based storage, ai installation, and advertusing? Linux doesnt do any of that and is completely free. Yeah, you keep shilling win11 there buddy.

You sound like a 13 year old talking about how their preferred gaming system is the best.

It's wild that presumable adults get childishly tribalistic about operating systems.

These keys are one time use and that too must be done quickly e.g 2-3 days and can't be used again in case you format the OS as they get deactivated by Microsoft time to time and hence can't be reused

I don't really like Windows 11 either, however, the keyboard and mouse lockout issue only occurred when booting into Recovery mode after installing a specific update...so it only impacted a handful of users and was barely noticed.

It wouldn't be so bad if it could easily and reliably run windows software. I consider Linux a novelty. I have it on my laptop and one of my desktops dedicated to investing, by my other work machines will always be Windows. And Win11 actually seems a bit smoother and faster than 10.
