I don’t really like Windows but it’s for my gaming PC. My laptop does run linux. I don’t know much of anything about 11 and whether it’s better or not.

    OP, thanks for being the sacrificial lamb here. Now I know never to ask a question about Windows if I don’t want to hear irrelevant opinions from Linux snobs. Sorry you didn’t get a lot of real answers.

      Lemmy as a platform is built on FOSS. There are going to be Linux/FOSS advocates all over here.

      I say this as primarily a windows admin who recently started diving into Linux.

      The “real answer” is that Windows 10 is supported until October 2024. You have until then to make your decision or switch to an alternative because after that, W10 won’t be getting more updates and you risk running an unsecure system at that point.

        There’s a difference between advocating for Linux in its own threads or where especially relevant (no problem!) and every Windows question getting answered with just “use Linux instead!” (aggravating and unhelpful).

        I’ve certainly seen worse than this thread in this regard, however.

          Its not a linux issue. If you go into linux threads there’s plenty of people advocating for windows.

          Even through the question is asking about windows 10 vs 11 it still makes sense to suggest alternatives.
