Windows 11 was the straw that broke the camel's back for me, and I no longer have any Windows PCs at home. I also had a friend ask me recently if he should upgrade his Windows 10 PC to Windows 11 and I told him to stay on Windows 10 as long as possible.

Microsoft only have themselves to blame for a whole raft of boneheaded decisions. Starting from when they changed course from: "Windows 10 will be the last version of Windows ever...", to then releasing a buggy and incomplete Windows 11. And since then a constant stream of hostile decisions relating to default browsers, more invasive adverts, and the unescapable MSN gossip articles that seem to pop up all over the place (e.g. you can't get rid of the MSN "news" articles from the widget sidebar thing they added to Windows 11).
