    Surprised to see so many defending windows 11 here! The ad insertion all throughout the system is SO bad, but what they’ve done to the right-click (context?) Menu was the last straw. Like, most options are hidden underneath the stupid inflated touch-friendly list. Give me a button to disable it (that isn’t in the registry), at least!

    The final straw for me though was my VR just quit one day - but I could dual boot back to windows 10 and it was fine somehow 🤷‍♂️ did a bunch of tricks to get it working to no avail, so I scrapped the windows 11 demo partition and finally gave Linux a try.

    VR definitely isn’t ready on Linux (if you’re stuck with an nvidia card like I am, for now) - but considering the OS is built on FOSS and its this feature rich and stable??? Never going back.

      @Xttweaponttx
      Yeah i agree. The ad stuff is really bad. Having ads in the browser is enough. I don’t want it in my OS. But even all the way back in Windows 7 some people busted Windows in “calling home” when something was entered in the search field in the Start menu. This was caught using the ZoneAlarm firewall.
