They're going to make it shit so you're forced to go to 11, or the much better alternative if it's an option for you.

Windows is not a serious OS anymore.

Shit, I'd still be using xp if they let me.

Windows 2000 was peak Windows.

I'm not stubborn, I'm just not going to accept a worse version of what I've already got.

Please no. I didn't upgrade to Windows 11 on purpose. I'm just trying to hold out as long as I can until I'm forced to switch to Linux. I don't want to have to deal with more enshittification in the meantime.

Windows laptops generally get trashy battery life, and if this going to tank it further, I'd just run Linux full-time on my family laptop and call it a day.

The only reason we had windows was my wife's comfortability and sometimes zoom glitches out on linux.

I recently had to roll back a windows 10 update because as soon as I installed it all of my startup programs stopped starting up at launch. As soon as I removed it, the problem went away.

No Microsoft, you cannot ruin my Win 10 experience to coerce me into migrating. It's gonna be a long annoying fight.

Unfortunately for us, Windows 10 is stubbornly popular because we dont want the new features.

(We also dont want a new CPU just to upgrade).

What's funny is right at launch I would have seriously considered upgrading, but I'm on second gen Ryzen and that platform was deemed not new enough at the time. Now they've added a bunch of BS and even though I think they've removed the restriction I'm over the new shiny thing and am looking heavily into a full linux setup.
