What was the last version of Windows you used before hopping on over? This includes the Linux greybeards too.

I was on Win10 but moved over as the end of life cycle is drawing near and I do not like Win11 at all.

Another thing for this change was the forced bloody updates, bro I just wanna shut down my PC and go to bed, if I wanna update it, I’ll do it on a Saturday morning with my coffee or something.

Lastly, all the bloat crap they chuck in on there that most users don’t really need. I think the only thing I kept was the weather program.

So what’s your reasoning for the change to the reliable and funni penguin OS?

    Last windows I used on everything was 10. Got fed up with things randomly breaking from updates or just hanging due to updates. Had issues with their office products during a major project that made.me swear off their stuff entirely. Now I’m mostly on pop is and endeavor and have a steamdeck.

    I still have a side machine that has windows for miscellaneous things that I don’t feel like forcing to work in Linux.

    I just want to use and own my machine. I don’t want to have to ask permission from some company to do things and I want to own my files. I have seen Microsoft doing more and more shit trying to put user data in their little one drive prison and that makes me hella uncomfortable especially with them having AI projects to feed.
