I don't remember there being a similar CPU generation cutoff before. Your 7th gen intel laptop cannot install windows 11. So Linux is your only choice.

Yes but most of the people don't care, out there are still people running windows xp and 7 without thinking twice about it

I expect there are very few people running 7, and waaaay less running xp. I think most people have upgraded to 10 or 11 by now.

Windows 7 had 10.25% desktop market share on November 2022
