Win11 is very buggy, I have removed all of it's AI as rubbish

I do find it comical, on win10 update page, 80% of teh shit on teh right
is all about update win11 your pc may not meet 11 reqs, then the bit
about let us help you work out how to trade or get a new pc to run w11,
lol, not likely, after octobers deadline if anything serious comes up
we\ll just put linux on it too :D

People do different things have different objectives with their
Computer
Mine was cheap international calls to overseas countries.
Reading and hearing news. watching movies, banking, buying selling
shares.
Now all problematic with Widows 11, Bluetooth earphones. so is a
bluetooth Mouse buggy, Skype was shot with a real crap replacement.
Use Charts a lot in Shares now not reliably working.
here's a reasonable youtube movie Channel, https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFTTjluTWUFW5nykBbdhe8g

Worldwide there is gaining momentum to replace windows with Linux
So while it may suit you doubt if Windows 11 suits a great many and
growing.
Linux is gaining momentum as a serious option for Windows users,
myself included.
Fixing and getting Windows bloatware downgrades, also don't like
widows involved with my security.

I'll never go back to windoze as my main OS

I seem to be getting ALL of them.
System settings changing not by me.
Windows Bloatware downgrades to make computers run slowly
(make one buy a new computer AND Windows operating system)
Bluetooth Headphones just not work in windows keep cutting out when
sound is quite (claimed to save power, it's just annoying)
Plugging headphones into sound jack activated Window unknown Blue
Screen of death requiring one to have a decryption USB key to start.
Which didn't work, Had to format drive and reinstall everything.
This list just keeps growing longer! and growing.

I installed w11 on a late model PC, and haven't done anything to it, but
every time it boots i get a blue screen telling me I have to use
recovery options. but if I just turn it off and restart it boots ok.

Except for the only man in the world who claims "Doesn't happen to me"
Rod Speed?

No many including the local neighborhood computer repair man who
find's fixing these Windows "quirks" very lucrative.

you can always stick with w10 if you have good av protection. Rod says
he still uses w7 iirc
