    Windows 11 isn’t even on the top 3 worst iterations of Windows.

    In terms of spyware and enshittification it sure as Hell is!

    And that’s the measure that matters here: not mistakes, but deliberate abuse of the user.

      Windows 10 is also a privacy nightmare and also has Edge, One drive and ads.

      Windows 11 has some nice features and you can use Group Policy to clean it up a bit.

        This is very true. There is a very weird endorsement of Windows 10 from the Linux community I do not align with at all. It’s basically the exact same thing.

        Especially since a lot of the less palatable features have been patched in backwards fairly dilligently. I use both routinely and there is little functional difference.
