If only they didn't intentionally give up compatibility with 250 million PCs by introducing artificial CPU requirements, then adoption rate would be higher...

But blackrock and vanguard (they control ~15% of Microsoft, Intel, AMD) really needed to increase their profits by selling more CPUs...

Also it didn't help that until October 2023 the taskbar was completely broken and unusable, people like me forbid the installation of the os in the company for that reason alone

What do you mean by the taskbar being unusable? I used it on my windows 11 laptop way before october 2023.

Combined icons make the computer unusable for who has multiple windows open from the same application.

For example if you constantly have to switch between 5 excel files you can't directly click on which you need

It's the reason I can't stand MacOS at all

I mean, not defending Win11 here, it has lots of other issues, but I'd just put each excel sheet on a different virtual desktop and switch with the keyboard. Always felt that clicking was a bit inefficient anyway.
