Every two windows version is a disaster. 95 nice, 98 sucked, XP was great, vista was a flop, 7 wow, 8 eurk, 10 marvelous, 11 is shit... They don't learn. But this time the goal is to make more money through adds, widgets and preinstalled bloatware.

Does anyone want windows 11 at all?
Not seen a single new feature in windows I cared about since XP 64 bit.
I’ve been using it for quite a while now… it’s fine. This happens literally every single time a new windows version comes out.
The only genuinely bad Windows IME was ME. Vista had driver teething problems, and 8 had a weird UI, but outside of that… they’re all just fine.
I’ve been building PCs since the late 90s and have pirated Windows from 98 on up.

I stuck Windows 10 LTSC on there, removed Edge and turned off all telemetry and it already comes with basically none. Never have been happier. No telemetry or bloatware.

Imagine paying $200 for that
The people app has been an abomination since the start and was barely updated since.
