My CPU and motherboard are from 2016. I don't mind updating harware to reach windows 11 compability, it's about time anyway.
I would be angry if updating to 11 from 10 would also cost money directly.
With Windows 11 you don't have to pay for the OS because you are the product through profiling and advertising, like Facebook and Google.
That sounds way, way worse to me that the old Win7 & Win10 model where you'd pay your ~$30 oem license (or $60 retail) once and be done forever without being heavily tracked and monitored.
