Thank God I switched to Linux. Windows 11 is a glimpse of what's coming in Windows 12.
What distro did you start on? I'm thinking I would rather learn Linux than take an 11 upgrade when 10 stops getting security updates.
Linux Mint is widely regarded as one of the best beginner-friendly distros, so it's a very nice option to start with. It was the second distro I've ever used (after Ubuntu) and it felt very stable and welcoming.
