    I was there since the first dos and windows emerged. I was a MS-enthusiast. Kinda. I have all titles and certificates MS offers, just for fun. I know what I’m doing.

    I hated 95, I hated vista, I hated win8…but 11? The only good thing is HDR and…err…yes. Everything else pisses me off so much. And wouldn’t it be due to aggressive anti-cheats I probably would’ve mained Linux and would just have the servers for the domain. I have 18 machines running and 15 are Linux already.

    I don’t understand why they have to fuck up so badly. The horrible crappy “new” Startmenu alone gives me STDs. Would be even survivable if they gave me the option to not use it. I absolutely despise changes I have to gulp down without options.

    Even the server versions…I loved winnt and everything up to 2019. Then that went downhill too.

    Ah, who cares. Win12 will be decent again, win13 the absolute total nightmare garbage that makes you long for having win11 back and will probably be the end of microsoft’s consumer market. So stupid fucking apple can take over the last remaining sheeples.

      Win12 will be decent again

      Windows 12 may stabilize a lot of the functional problems occurring in 11, but it will also have all of the new AI-powered end-user surveillance features they’re currently trying to implement fully integrated.

        Sure. That stuff will stick. And because everyone forcefully tries to include it everywhere, you can’t even blame them for wanting a piece of the cake. Even sucksuckgo now has an “AI”.

        I’d just wish for a simple opt-out outside of firewalling it hard.

        Also, I was just hoping they’d follow their shitty, good, shitty, good principle in releases 😐

        Yes. I can’t nail the reasons after that time though. I think it was mostly the stability for me, but wouldn’t swear on it 😁
