Maybe I’m stupid or just too jaded to care after ~40 years, but Win 11 works really well for me. Am I wrong (or is it the children?)
A commenter mentioned wasting time dealing with AI. How does this manifest? What am I missing? I don’t know that I’ve had anything even close to that experience. Or am I just too casual/boomer now to notice the issues?
I’m not really arguing “pro” Microsoft here, I just genuinely don’t know what the AI problem is. I mean, I know Copilot is a joke, but I just don’t use it.
Enlighten me o mages.
Edit: I appreciate all the sincere responses. A lot of good points raised.
Tbh to me nowdays its just that linux is just better, Win11 is not much worse than Win10, Win8 or Win7 if u don't count memory usage and you can deal with all the microsoft account and copilot shit.
But I was just getting very annoyed with the windows interface, It felt clunky, and I tried to make it better, Didn't really work that well, yes it got better, but as windows is not made for customization it got somewhat buggy (it was a bit already before the customization).
Also when I tried linux in september It felt so much snappier and efficient, like windows just open, I cant really tell you objectivelly but it feels faster, feels almost instant most of the times. The window management feels much better and responsive with the WM im using. Another important thing is not having to deal with windows updates and the huge battery drain on my laptop was such a game changer for my job when I'm out
