I reckon we'll get another year out of it, and I also think within a year, there will be plenty of workarounds to make W11 usable for moderately tech savvy people like us

The loudest voices shouting about how bad W11 is are always Linux users, especially on Lemmy

If we had nothing to complain about, we'd still be using Windows. It's why we aren't.

I'm still using windows and I've nothing to complain about; I know how to get it to work perfectly for me.

Go to the Linux community and 70% of the questions are "how do I get this to work?"

You definitely have a lot to complain about, and yous do, frequently. Most adults don't have time to fanny about trying to get a program to work with their OS, so they're happy with Mac or Windows

If Linux was everyday-usable they'd have waaaaaay more than 4% market share by now, it's been over two decades

You are conveniently forgetting that every Laptop that isn't a Mac comes with Windows by default
