I'm not even on Windows 11, lol. Dodging so many bullets from that shithole OS.
The only things preventing me from going full on Linux is driver support/compatibility, full gaming (we're talking, things from GOG more than Steam) and using the same utilities that run better on Windows.
The ~~spice~~ shit must flow
I'm just here waiting for my wife to finally snap and ask about getting Linux on her gaming PC. I've been using it for 20 years now. The complaints are becoming more and more numerous these days, it's only a matter of time.
They can at least be disabled but it's always something with MS these days.
turn off the toggle for “Show recommendations for tips, app promotions, and more.”
I turn this off anyway, as in Windows 10 it always kept pushing 3rd party apps. Is this ad any different to the Windows 10 "Suggested App" that was in the start menu for it?
Realistically, how many years do you think Microsoft will support Windows 10? I dread having to switch to 11 some day, at the rate they're going.
This is my line for biting the bullet and switching to Linux. I hope gaming gets to where I want it to be (braindead easy for anyone with 'actually' on their lips)
I'm calling it now.
Windows 11 will be the new Windows 8. Or NT. Or millennium.
NT? You mean Vista maybe? NT was a massive product line that was pretty popular, and the kernel touches most releases to this day.
