But I don’t have the issues I’m told I should be having. And neither did my users over the last two jobs as a sysadmin.

I’m on a plain vanilla Win11 ISO, upgraded from Win10. I honestly have no idea when I last had an OS issue. As a sysadmin, I can’t think of an OS-level issue my users had over 5-years at my previous job.

I’d be an idiot to say Windows is a perfect OS, but my experience, on the job and privately, does not jive with “problems on a near constant basis”.

I have no idea how old my Windows install is, moved the SSD from 3 or 4 previous computers. Plugged it all up, booted, waited a few minutes, all good. Never had an OS last this long without a wipe. LOL, I was astounded when Windows 2000 Advanced Server went 30-days without a reboot!

These arguments are truly strange to me. I’m told I have problems that I don’t have. And it’s not just me. I’ve overseen fleets of Windows machines. Can’t say none of the problems were OS related, but I can’t think of a single issue ATM, problems were 3rd party software or hardware failures.
