I tried Win11 about 3 months after the initial release. That was a mistake.
Some of my wares of the seven seas did not run properly (like asassins creed valhalla), and there were performance issues when gaming. So I rolled back to Win 10.
Any fellow sailors out there daily driving 11? Have the big bugs been ironed out yet? Any glaring issues?
I just upgraded to 12 (Debian), highly recommend it’s bigger number than bleb winblows
This is a joke I guess, but actually the new debian release is pretty sweet. Plasma is getting real good these days, if you care about that sort of thing.
I would recommend OpenSuse 15.5. Python3.6 is very old, but the version number is even higher and it works flawlessly
it pretty much just feels like windows 10.1 to me, pretty similar imo but there are a few differences. virtualizing android apps makes it worth it for me.
I wish they finished the UI before pushing 11 en masse. I think it looks okay, but it’s a bit jarring looking at the new UI and having to jump back to old UI to properly do something (like using the right click menu).
Kind of like using the options app in win10 and having to open up control panel for some obscure setting that was not available to change in the new Settings app.
I’ve been on it since it released, and other than the UI differences, I haven’t even noticed a difference. If anything, it’s actually a bit faster.
With significant modifications under the hood (massive Registry changes for the Windows Explorer folder tree to simplify it back to rational XP standards… no libraries, nothing except for the hard drive folder tree) and a replacement start menu (StartIsBack, because Open-Shell isn’t working for Win11 yet), and Win11 is actually working quite well for my Octogenarian father. And he’s of the age where change comes very badly for him, which is why I needed to make some serious open-heart surgery on Win11 to modify things back to an XP look-and-feel. But it is doable, it just takes some time and occasional maintenance to ensure it stays usable.
I personally LOVE Windows 11. The new Windows Terminal feature alone is worth the upgrade. Used to Microsoft writing shitty software, but some of their stuff on TCE is great, namely PowerToys and wsl2/gwsl
I’m using Win 11 at my place of work and this is definitely a strong point for me. Terminal is so much nicer than CMD. And I literally use powertoys for nothing more than the Win+Space app search because of muscle memory built from using MacOS.
For what it’s worth you can get WindowsTerminal on Win10
nope. absolutely will only update when i “have” to
I’ve been using Windows 11 for about a solid year now. Had zero issues gaming and using various programs. Transition from 10 was flawless.
This right here. MS shill right here. Win 11 is a bag of crap and shit. Full of creepy hidden malware shoving their crap slowly down your throat behind your back. Worse of all, their 5,000,000 page legalese contract hidden from you authorises them to perv and destroy your life (it even authorises the chinese government to shit on your life). NEVER EVER TRUST MS EVER. They are worse than spez, sadly.
I don’t trust Microsoft far as privacy or whatever. Just my experience has been fine running software. I do run ShutUp10 on it which I know doesn’t make it perfect.
I wouldn’t call them a shill, Windows can provide a decent experience for some people. That being said I do believe you are right about Windows and all MS products being malware.
No, as a man of culture I use Linux.
(Lol just gotta get a dig in, can’t resist. I know gaming isn’t 100% there yet but Steam and their Proton are making great strides in recent years.)
Agreed. I laugh at these peasant frivolities.
The calendar flyout still can’t show your agenda, like in Win10. The ‘widget’ section is still full of unremovable MSM spam. It still installs ad-ware on major updates.
I hate it because of that.
I like TikTok in my startmenu /s
Switched to 11 when it came out and haven’t looked back. I’m also one of those weirdos that uses Edge browser in Linux…
Edge in Linux is a crime against humanity.
Repent sinner 😂
