Running Windows 11 now, and for the first time ever I'm seriously considering running some flavour of Linux with a separate windows partition for games.

The amount of crap they are constantly shovelling down your throat is jaw-dropping. Add in the growing UI inconsistencies, options I turn off re-appearing after every 'feature update' and its just not worth it.

Also, not sure if I'm running on the beta channel right now, but damn is the thing unstable as anything, opening task manager takes FOREVER, explorer is incredibly slow and crashes frequently.
