Leaks confirm low takeup for Windows 11::Time to rethink Windows 10 support cycle then?

Just try Linux, people. I bet at least 1/5 of you would be just fine with the change (I still have to dual boot because of work related stuff).

Ironically, Microsoft is making this the reality more so than Linux/GNU + Valve.

I have tried but have found dual booting frustrating. I need to find a setup that allows me to use it with all my work stuff.

I have been interested in Linux Mint as a starter into Linux. However I think I need a separate computer for work and another for home use. Then on top of that still have dual boot for the few things that don’t work on linux. Just feels like a mess.

Overall though I 100% wish I could do Linux.

Maybe because it’s garbage and a worsening of everything people hate about what Windows is becoming? Nah, it’s the consumer that’s wrong…

Windows 11 won’t even run on most of the computers I have and those computers have still got many years of life in them. If they drop support for Windows 10 I guess I’ll go all in on Linux (I just use it for my work machine at the moment).
