Already was, ain't it? I think that it was at 2% or something of Steam users until it wasn't supported as of this year.

You aren’t wrong, I was more saying that when XP finally dies completely 7 will be the oldest man still standing

[–] PopMyCop@iusearchlinux.fyi 4 points 9 months ago

Oh, totally right. I guess I didn't even think that 7's successors are 10/11 as well as 8.

these are mostly enterprise systems right? like terminals/pos stuff where the system is responsible for just running the ui?

I've been looking for advice. I've been wondering if it was worthwhile to upgrade from 10 to 11. I heard 11 had ads and even more bloatware, a disgusting UI, and just general worse. But i was wondering if those are fixed/avoidable. I was thinking of upgrading before it gets too late, or idk...

Windows 11 is miserable. You are now required to add Microsoft accounts at the OS level. Tons of bloatware, embedded ads in start menu, heavy user tracking. Shitty AI implementation pushed on all apps including notepad. And all of the windows 10+ elements are built in the windows 8 base image so all of the settings are nested on top of the new settings UI, on top of control panel.

Win11's telemetry load is significantly higher than already outrageous win10's to the point I feel it is a legitimate security risk.

Things like passing off your wifi passwords in plaintext to MS servers is really only the tip of the iceberg.

When w10 goes End of Life, I'll be buying 3rd party microcode patching from 0patch.

Screw w11 with every fiber of my being.
