    I would upgrade to windows 11 if it wasn’t full of ads, I had two computers accidentally upgrade after mis-clicking an upgrade prompt and the experience was bad enough I reloaded the whole computer.

    Not only that, but it doesn’t make sense to have a task bar on the bottom of an ultrawide display. I’ve been putting my taskbar on the left side for over a decade, and now you just can’t do that for some reason…

      The task bar is my main reason for staying on 10. Forced grouping with icons only and no option to change it is such a bizarre design decision.

      Edit: Sounds like my last major gripe with W11 has been fixed! Dreading a forced switch to 11 much less now.

        My work machine is W11 and has options to change it. Not one of those stupid ‘home’ vs ‘pro’ version things is it?

    Slows my pc down while downloading and prepping upgrade. Attempts upgrade. Not compatible. Undoes upgrade. Bitches to upgrade the next week…

        I have a dual boot. And the penguin works and Microsoft is still sitting around not having an update. I don’t really care. But I can’t game with out Windows. So, bleh.

          Which games are keeping you on windows?

          I’m curious because I’m in a similar situation, but really the only game I know isn’t going to work is Tarkov.

            I think the most major ones are

            • Tarkov
            • Valorant
            • Overwatch
            • Fortnite

            If you know any other major titles LMK

              I play overwatch on endeavouros and I have better experience on it than in windows. League of legends will stop working soon. In general most of the games with rootkit anticheat clients will not work on Linux. On protondb you can see rankings and user comments about games. Last I checked 2% of all games are not working on Linux.

          I can play every Paradox Game on Linux. Therefore, I can play every game that matters. Now, if you need me, I’ll be in Crusader Kings, trying to build a family tree that looks like a giant beanstalk.
