My PC tried to get me to install Windows 11 yesterday. I took away its CPU cooler until it learns to behave.
-
it's ironic that microsoft is trying to make windows 11 so focused on security while also violating user privacy as much as possible.
-
Worse privacy, loss of usability, poorer functionality, obtuse design decisions, increased bloat... I wonder why everyone isn't switching to W11?
-
I had win 11 and then upgraded to win 10. Best decision
-
My favorite thing about windows 11, is how it takes more clicks than windows 10 to do the same task
-
Microsoft told us that windows 10 will be the last version of windows and I'm just sticking to that. After windows 10 I'm switching to linux.
-
My mother, who isn't that tech savvy, clicked on a Windows notification that told her to upgrade to Windows 11. She did exactly that, and now her laptop is practically bricked because it doesn't have TPM 2.0. Thanks, Microsoft.
-
Windows 11 is the best thing to have ever happened to Linux. It's been said before by many people, but that just goes to show how uninterested people are to keep entertaining Microsoft's increasing amount of shortcomings.
-
When Microsoft advertised windows 10 as "the last windows you will ever need". Microsoft should be forced to support Windows 10 for the rest of time.
-
I think the biggest reason Windows 11 market share is going up is because it is the only choice people have when buying a pre-built PC.
-
I went through all the hassle of installing Windows 11 to check it out, only to revert back to Windows 10 the instant I realized I couldn't put my taskbar on the side.
-
They should treat experienced C++ / Windows API devs better, not trying to be edgy using Rust while integrating slow WPF into the system UI.
-
there is a reason why windows 10 is called as "the last windows you will ever need".
-
"we've made huge chunk of computers unable to update to windows 11" also microsoft: why arent everone updating to windows 11?
-
Microsoft said that win10 would be the last, then made win11 and made it compatible with PCs with hardware bought in the last 5 years. No wonder the world hasn't adapted yet. Most people, at least outside the US keep their PCs for more than 5 years.
-
Windows 7 had the best UI. Its been steadily going downhill from there. Each new version of windows they just add another layer of shit on top of the old windows. Now its like 10 clicks just to set your IP address, WTF.
-
You missed a chance to say "most people aren't switching because of ads where they don't belong, unlike this relevant one from our sponsor..."
-
Reasons to ignore Windows 11? - TPM 2.0 - even more ads in the Start Menu - even more news in the Start Menu - even more cloud hrny integration - even more telemetry - searching for programs or files is a forced Bing search - widgets suddenly showing on the lock screen - unable to manage printers properly - THE NEED TO HAVE A MS ACCOUNT TO INSTALL IT oh... and rightclick W F no longer works to create a new folder
-
As a software engineer I hate how TPM prevents me from making changes to my own computer. I hope to be able to switch to Linux for my gaming PC when Windows 10 is retired.
-
The new task scheduler that properly handles P Cores vs E Cores is literally the only reason I'll switch to Windows 11, once I finally build a PC that has those types of cores.
