Didn't windows 11 become available long ago? Did no one ever try it out before the hostage situation?
Certainly not the beta testers
Maybe all the dependable beta testers who would report bugs had already left to Linux or BSD.
Or like the other commenter replied here suggests,
Maybe dependable beta testers who would report bugs had too steep a workload they gave up and moved to Linux or BSD.
I mean they pretty famously laid off the majority of their QA teams around the time of the Windows 10 rollout
I tried it for a couple of months when it first came out. At that early point it wasn't too bad for usability. But, after a decent look around it, I wiped it and went back to Linux on my laptop.
