Thank God I switched to Linux. Windows 11 is a glimpse of what's coming in Windows 12.
What distro did you start on? I'm thinking I would rather learn Linux than take an 11 upgrade when 10 stops getting security updates.
i suggest you split your disk and try linux in the other partition way before w10 ends, because there's still a bit of a learning curve and getting used to. for me it took a few tries, a few different distros. i went back to windows for a while a couple of times when i accidentally killed my penquin. btw disable fast startup from windows power button settings if you go this route, that'll save you from a lot of head scratching. i ended up with mint because it seems to be the only distro that works perfectly with my buggy ass 3060ti.
Thanks for your advice!
