  • Around December, I got my first non-work non-Mac computer in recent memory and it came with Win 11 (not Enterprise) installed. Couldn’t believe my eyes when I first booted it up: a completely hostile and bloated experience, in my opinion. I’m not new to Windows, I’ve been on pretty much every version from 95 and forward– including ME and Vista – and it’s never given me the ick like Win 11 did. Installing Debian was a massive improvement – including out of the box functionality.

    Your preference is fine, if you have software you need to run that is fully compatible with your system and the user experience doesn’t get in the way of your workflow – all the power to you. But I genuinely don’t believe it’s a good reflection of most people’s experience and needs. Linux these days are as plug and play as Windows, if not more.
