If it wasn’t for the forced cloud integration, forced AI and other user-hostile behaviour, Windows 11 would actually be quite a nice OS.

It’s performant, easy to manage at scale, a lot of the UX weirdness from Windows 8-10 has been cleaned up, and tools like WSL are well integrated.

Windows 11 is not performant, it's sluggish in a lot of places and everything got slower on the same or even better hardware. And I will never not laugh about having two context menus. Windows 8 was way faster even on low-end hardware thanks to DirectUI.
