A bog standard windows 11 gets you from cold boot into user land pretty quick. The problem comes when you’ve got thirty or more badly optimized applications running at startup.
The fuck it does. Maybe compared to my old Windows 7 install on a spinning rust platter, but Windows 11 is a slog compared to Mint in my experience. I can reboot my desktop and reload my apps so fast on Linux that Discord won’t notice that my connection dropped.
The problem comes when you’ve got thirty or more badly optimized applications running at startup.
I only have Outlook and Teams starting up automatically on my work computer, and it still takes 10-15 minutes to get fully up and running from fast boot’s “shut down”. This is on an engineering workstation.
Windows 11 (and Microslop programs in general) are just unoptimized pieces of crap
