Good news, installing Linux doesn't teleport me into your living room. Complaining about other users is just another lame cope windows users use to excuse themselves (which wouldn't even be necessary if they were actually happy with their choice to use windows.)

It’s kind of weird that you’re so concerned about the happiness of Windows users…

To be honest I’m surprisingly happy* about Windows 11, after minimal amount of tweaking (less than I need on any Linux distro I tried to make it usable) I turned off most of the annoying stuff and I don’t really have much to complain about it + WSL

*the only thing I really want from an OS these days is to stay out of my way and require the minimal amount of pointless busywork from me (all the package management nonsense on Linux + permanent issues with Nvidia’s drivers).

The phrase "a power user who eschews desktop environments" was irritating. It brings to mind a "power gamer", still playing Colossal Cave Adventure.
