I had used windows for decades prior to that. Never been a windows admin professionally, but definitely new my way around.
I've had my desktops with reasonable uptime as well, but it was on win7 (and probably 10). However, system uptime is not everything. Things running within that system have to keep running as well and they don't.
I think thr closest comparison I can give is upgrading speakers - you can't really tell a higher quality speaker plays your music any better until months pass, you get used to it and then hear the same track on a previous set. It's night and day.
I'm as much as a Linux guy as anybody else, but this really just seems like an interfacing issue. I've never done anything professionally with computers, but I run all of my self hosted stuff right on my windows machine (no virtualization) with no issues. The only times things MIGHT go down is when I'm updating. I've never used Windows 11, so if it's as bad as Windows Vista then that makes sense, but then why not just use Windows 10? It exists and you can use it and it works
I don't want to use windows. I've found something better.
