Windows 11

[Teelie]

Probably the fastest way to move people to Linux and MacOS is make Windows a subscription. I doubt Microsoft is that incompetent, even with everything else I've seen lately.

Smaller and faster Windows 11 updates are on the way as Microsoft switches to downloading just what you need and none of what you don't

The tyranny of huge Windows updates looks to be a thing of the past.

I still find it funny how MS gets rid of the live tiles just to make the widget icon less redundant.

How is that going so far? I am thinking of doing the same. Maybe running a VM for stuff that absolutely has to be running in Windows.

Ended up doing this. Went with Bazzite since my laptop is primarily used for light gaming with some desktop “work” stuff. Been a few months and have had no issues. Glad I did it.

Bazzite is great for gaming and it's built on Fedora and its Atomic distros. Just means it's less likely to break from an update. There's also Garuda and Nobura that are also gamer centric.
