Windows 11 is garbage

[Nasher]

I'm thinking from more of a commercial point of view, when you have dependencies on other apps and functionality that requires internet connections.

That's what a firewall is for. Windows has never been all that secure no matter what they did. Just have to be careful

There was nothing good about ME, Vista or 8...

Generally speaking, I always found skipping a 'gen' worked for me.

95/98 where pretty much the same for me.
Skipped 2000/ME.
XP was good.
Skipped Vista.
7 was good.
Skipped 8.
10 has been fine.
Hoping I will be able to skip 11, but it doesn't look likely.

Agreed, I'm sticking with 10 as long as possible. Got 11 on my work laptop, and just don't like it, seems to take several additional clicks to do things which were previously easily accessible.

I'm sure it's fine for casual desktop users, but as a power user/developer, it just gets in the way more than anything else.
