I truly believe it's 75% the name. If the changes in W11 (Electron Start button, tabbed File Explorer, new context menu, etc.) were just included over a few semi-annual channel Windows 10 updates then the push back would be a lot less. All of the most annoying stuff, like telemetry and Copilot advertisements were part of the latest Windows 10 releases anyway. The hardware support is also a big issue, but I don't know how many people complaining so vocally don't have computers new enough to run without any kind of bypass. |

Microsoft cannot be trusted as a provider for data. I use it on my work machine but here I am authenticated by a locally hosted domain controller. Private installs are a privacy and security nightmare.
I just like the utility of being able to swap hard drives to other machines and I have no evil maid anyway.
In many instances Windows says you system is too old if your system uses MBR/Bios for booting. TPM2.0 is old for that matter. It is just not detectable depending on your boot configuration (which is a good thing in my opinion).
> Criticisms of telemetry and promotion of tools that supposedly disable it aren't new
Yes, well, it does get a lot, lot worse if this telemetry is connected through an account.
