Comment on Microsoft confirms Windows 11 is about to change massively, gets enormous backlash - Neowin
frog_brawler@lemmy.world 4 days agoPeople that have been windows users for years that have been recently taking steps to remove windows from their lives aren’t going back when they remove AI (also, doubt that is ever happening). They’re pissed off, and if they manage to get their stuff working in Linux there’s absolutely no reason to switch back.

I am (was) a Windows user of 30 years and Windows 11 was the final straw for me. I’ve been playing around with Linux for 15 years but have only used it for my servers, as I never felt the desktop environment quite met the requirements as my daily driver.
One year ago, I made the switch, decided to power through and leave Windows behind. I was prepared to let go of the things that would not work on Linux and learn to live without them. Now, a year later, I have managed to migrate all my stuff to Linux. Sure, there are somethings I miss, but those are mostly aesthetics and not functionality.
And you are absolutely right! I’m pissed at Microsoft and have no plans to ever switch back.
