Windows hit its lowest market share in decades, Microsoft lost $400 billion in a week, and now their own president is admitting they need to fix the OS. SteamOS and Linux aren't waiting around.

Last October my work PC was "upgraded" to windows 11... All the menus are wrong, nothing works like it should, and it keeps trying to get me to poison the air by using copilot. At home I use Linux Mint and it's amazing. The only thing I've tried to do on Mint that it wouldn't do is play one video game I have called Cosmoteer. Which is strange because I have a lot more complex programs and games that run fine.

Mint has been all i have run since the end of last year. Only thing i had to open windows for was ableton live, i cant get it to install in any wine emulator i have tried. I followed guides but nothing has worked so far.

Otherwise i love using it and everything else works. Mostly out of the box.

You might be able to downgrade to windows 10 and get extra security updates until October. I've been lazy and have continued using my old windows install using the outdated file structure, so Windows said I was ineligible to upgrade to 11 and gave it to me for free.
