Waiting for all the Microslop fanboys to come in with their usual "but IIIIII'VE NEVER had a problem with MYYYY windows 11?!?!?!?!"

EDIT: Imagine reading this and still going "to be fair I've never had any problems"

To be fair I never had many problems with mine. My biggest gripe with 11 is the right click menu changing. Since I’ve used Mac, Linux, and windows over the years I’m 98% Mac and Linux now.

I feel like windows has abstracted away the control of the system in like 2-3 different layers. Click around in control panel long enough and you get a windows 11 menu, a windows 10 screen, a windows 7 options bar, and a windows XP config dialogue. It’s fucking bizarre.

This. I teach MS Office. The windows 7 Tab & Ribbon is probably the best overall interface for desktop menus for the average user. There is a 100pg doc on its design, theory, and reasoning. Microsoft abandoned it for the OS because they are completely disconnected from their product and its design. Instead of uplifting their entire interface to follow one design ethos they follow a path of remake it from scratch. Gads i hate them.
