First time trying windows 11. It's complete trash.

This isn't a dunk or anything on Debian. It's always good to have multiple options.

I know everyone shits on win11, but just 10 minutes of setup and it works absolutely fine
Yeah you can basically convert it to something usable with a little work and some free software. Highly recommend power toys as well, particularly the fancy zones one for window snapping.
That said, recent iterations of things like teams and outlook really feel crappy to me. Teams in particular. Customization in outlook is sorta there, but boy is it non-intuitive. Also they both handle like bloated shit in terms of perceived latency on inputs. Why the hell does it take a half second for teams to bring up the menus where I can troubleshoot my audio/visual device settings…
Yeah the apps i can't really defend. For those you just have to find alternatives i guess. Unless your work forces them on you.
Yeah it’s a work-required thing, don’t have em on my home pc. But just brought them up because MS keeps deeper integrating them into OS, and even as standalone Products, they offer a window into the general approach and quality level of software from them right now, which one might assume is shared with win11 and its hacked together bing/copilot integrations, telemetry, etc.
Yeah Microsoft is a huge company with many, many teams. Some produce amazing things (C#, .Net Core), some produce insane things (Teams, Outlook)
ok boomer
