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.

For the problem thing, I use timeshift.

Hit a snag? Boot into a system state from a few weeks back and deal eith it later.

The problem was the specialized software from samsung to sideload jellyfin on my tv not working properly but i second that timeshift is not a luxery on these kind of systems. If i only need windows now and then for sm specialized then thats ok, hope to move windows into just a vm soon.

I have to admit, I still have a windows partition, but I honestly haven't booted into it for a full year now. The only thing I can think of needing it for, is firmware updates to my logitech peripherals, but that's something I can live without.

There will always be something that will only work on windows, but that list is getting short enough now that the number of people it's a problem for has begun to shrink, too.
