Nobara OS, Arch Linux and Pop!_OS beat Windows 11 by a slim margin in fps (delta 8) in Windows native games - Cyberpunk 2077, Forspoken, Starfield and The Talos Principle II. Windows 11 wins in Rachet & Clank.

ComputerBase's testing was done on an all-AMD test rig, featuring a Ryzen 7 5800X (non-3D) and a Radeon RX 6700 XT.

Update: Windows 11 wins in one game.

Same can be said about Windows users. The default is what defines the just works statement. The default is shit, you just learn to ignore it or find ways to make a bad product sort of work for you. You need to do basic stuff the hard way and still believe the product is alright. "you can pause updates for two weeks" translates to "the product is designed to assume you own it for up to two weeks". It's not a feature mate, it's not a skill to circumvent it, it's bending over backwards and paying money to do so.

The forced updates are because non tech users don't understand why they are so important. I'm assuming you keep your Linux updated to date?
