I got an email about support ending in October 2025; isn't this still extremely early? Aren't they usually about two or three versions of windows down the line before they end updates?
I don't want windows 11 (and no I don't want Linux either, knock it off); this is ridiculous.
While I left Windows a long time ago- I'm using Win 11 for work.
Once you get past the ad placement in the start menu, and HW barriers to installation it really isn't that bad. I've had fewer overall crashes than Win 10 so far, and compatibility has been OK.
In principal the advertising and the spying etc is really infuriating, but hey, that's where everything is headed anyway.
Can’t tell if this is a joke or not
Not a joke, they would suggest apps in the start menu, essentially ads.
