From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

You know, as much as people here say they aren't happy with it, I haven't seen any specific complaints that detail the problems. What bad change does windows 11 even make from windows 10?
Not saying I don't see problems with windows, there are... A lot. But what are the new problems with windows 11?
Edit: to the people downvoting as if you disagree with me: I'm literally asking a question because I don't know much about windows 11. I am not trying to make any kind of statement for or against windows 11, I just don't know what the current flavor of bullshit is and wanted to.
The primordial one, u need a Microsoft account to even be able to install.
The next, all the ui changes wich prioritizes "looks" over being useable.
All the new extra telemetry, etc, etc, etc.
Literally the only annoyance I had with it initially was that I preferred my taskbar at the top of the screen, and you can't move it, at least not without janky registry hacks, on Windows 11.
I've since gotten over it, because for me and the vast majority of people, it's functionally identical in almost all cases.
The only other thing I can think of that's still a rare annoyance is that sometimes, completely at random, Windows Explorer, if you've just left a window open in the background for a while, will just rip focus from whatever other thing you were doing.
Yes, they're trying to shoehorn their copilot AI thing into the UX, but that was so easy to disable and forget that I refuse to call it a real problem, myself.
Thanks for answering. Idk who downvoted you for answering a question lol
