Raising this dead article as Microsoft now delivers extended support pricing details for those who choose not to migrate to the newer version of Windows. The one they were told they'd not ever have to migrate to

I had to upgrade to Win 11 today ;(

Hyper-V configuration version 9.3 and above is not available on Win 10.

And yes I know about Linux, my laptop runs it. But I'm not in the mood of migrating a fuck ton of stuff to another OS. I have around 20 TB of storage on my PC and redoing everything should be a pain.

I also don't want to forget my Windows knowledge overtime.

I will absolutely disable as much bullshit as possible though. I didn't even have web search in the search bar in win 10 (because it broke the search bar, but still).

Had to use win11 yesterday.

It was completely unusable fucking trash and even the ux was terrible.

If it helps, my media drives transferred straight over to Linux when I cleaned by last windows device.

It was completely unusable fucking trash and even the ux was terrible.

How do you say this with a straight face. I know, just know, you want to push Linux, it's a must here on Lemmy, but to say it's unusable trash does more to denigrate my opinion of your opinion than my opinion of the OS. It functions substantially similar to W10.

I want to truly know what you mean. What did you try to do but were 100% prohibited doing due to W11?

Read what I wrote, dear. I answered literally all your questions.

You couldn't figure out how to change paper size. Seems like operator error.

But the ux was so bad, I described many of the ways it was bad.

If your solution is 'get gud', might I recommend you install arch?

It isn't get good. I'm sure you're more than capable of figuring it out. It just feels like, a long with so many other similar posts, shit in windows because windows bad. And I'm as nostalgic for XP and 98 as many people on here are, in the same way I'm nostalgic for many other things that happened during my formative years, but to go to say windows is unusable is just completely counter to my person experience, which is that windows has removed some power user features over the past 20 years, but remains largely the same. I also don't use it the way I used to.

Setting up a Linux box for me would just be a hobbyist exercise, and so I may, I will, just haven't gotten around to it yet.

This isnt power user shit. Its GUI printing a document.

The ux was actively terrible. Yeah I was sad when I had to uninstall 7; nothing worked with it anymore. But I went into 11 and it was just completely terrible. Youre a boiled frog, friend.

I cannot think of a ux mistake they didn't make. And there's no fucking excuse; it's the flagship product of a multi billion dollar company! And it wasnt even pretty to look at!

I'm not a Linux partisan because Linux is good. I'm a Linux partisan because Linux, at the very least, isnt getting actively worse over time. Its not losing features. Its not being dumbed down. You don't need to tolerate this week's added bullshit corporate bloat.

I wish to fuck I could still be using windows 7, but I can't. Windows is dead. So Linux it is.
