Windows Server 2019 doesn't eol until 2029 for security updates, which is based on Windows 10. So if you got a key for it then that's an alternative. (Without a key it will auto shutdown every 1 hour after the trial is over). But you can extend the trial for 3 years

Tbh, i have been using the edge as my main browser for years The first reason is because the edge is "lighter" than chrome on my ancient machine (open faster & less memory, at least on my ancient machine) Some other reasons are the in-built vertical tab with grouping, less "head" section (especially better for low res/height display) so i can see more content, & i can open tens of tabs just fine (idk maybe because the edge also put sleep unused tabs) but i can still open my other tools like my development tools (VS 20xx, DBMS, etc.) on machines with 8GB of RAM... & the only "configuration" that needed to be done for it is just change the bar to be vertical (few clicks)
@duck_mangroveRoblox I'm a simple man. I wish we could have nice things like an OS that looks like windows XP and operates the same way but is as powerful as windows 10 or 11- Also I heard there's some feature with a possibility to lock you out of your PC/user if you dont have an internet connection but idk.
Tiny11 sounds cool, until you read up on how it's been stripped of security as well. Seems some systems have been compromised due to that as well, so I'm not going that way.
Oh god... PLEASE also inform about the fact that this was developed by a single person not hired by Microsoft , has lost lots of security features , has probably big legal problems and is not (easily) updatable.
why would you even like updates that potentially could ruin your drivers? bruh windows push out forced updates almost weekly and they put shit they don't know works for certain niche hardware. security features are just things to slow down your pc. just dont download and run executables and you're fine
Been waiting for a real operating system from Microsoft guess i have to wait another decade. In the meantime linux and win 10 dual boot is fine right now
@@darkshadowsaver if MS don't get their act together for the next release, I'm waiting it out on 10 and then noping out to Linux. Most of my stuff works over there now anyway, and for those that don't, there's Wine and emulation.
@rabbiy69games I literally just upgraded from a pc with windows 7. It was forced. Chrome can't upgrade and everything is baggy because of it. All the latest games on steam require 10 minimum now also.
Yeah yeah, tiny11 also uninstalls packages with full version names, which means that as soon as a system app is updated it doesn’t work anymore. Btw, removing edge also removes webview, which means that teams is broken, Microsoft store is broken, virtually anything that is a web app is broken. Hope that helps! Btw, a coworker of mine is developing his own version of optimised win11, and it already is smaller than tiny11. Stay up to date!
Tiny11 doesn’t link to Microsoft servers so it doesn’t update with the latest security patches, among other issues any private branch of an operating system will have
@@acanthohemiazalea8243 that is not true. security patches include fixes to kernel or even hardware level vulnerabilities (such as spectre or meltdown) which Windows Defender can't protect against. But for most people using an up-to-date version of windows along with windows defender is probably adequate
@Amelie12 but in the future, you can have some major problems, so you need to keep in touch and update your tiny11 every time they realise a new update
I still miss windows 7, stuck on 10 tell I can't any more. I've tried Linux a hand full of times over the last few years. Microsoft has already lost me.
For me, Windows was finally over about 8 years ago - when I switched to Linux. I've got more desire to get back with my ex than have to go back to Microsoft anything.
"windows 11 is over time to move on": 87% of windows users still on windows 10 because its the best OS. Even my chromebook can run windows 10 (not tiny 10 but the full thing) and it has a celeron 2955u and 4gb of ram
I disagree I like the UI better on Windows 11 and it even does HDR a lot better as well. I don’t have to keep changing to HDR in the settings every time unlike Windows 10. Also Intel 12th and 13th Gen runs better on Windows 11.
@@crockpot5850 that’s straight up wrong first off, you can more the search icon (shocker, right?), and intel 12th gen performs better on win 11. not sure about 13th gen/ryzen 7000 tho. also if you are that pissed about the right click menu, it takes around 5 minutes to bring the old menu back. almost no reason not to upgrade i guess.
@@gametravelers9352 correction: almost no reason to upgrade* and clearly you dont know how to talk. No not really a shocker that you can make the search icon appear into a text bar. It still sucks how windows 11 looks like a modified version of some linux distro

@@cjcox9047 this man speaks truth! I wish they came with chrome, firefox, or opera. anything but edge... edge is chrome but uses more resources than even vanilla chrome while also being stripped of any useful browser features from chrome. the only good thing about edge/chrome is adblocker still works on it.
Yeah, after the shift to chromium based, it's not a ram hungry search engine like chrome and has quite a nice UI. People are too stiff minded to even consider it as an option. I only use Edge is both my PC and laptop.
Actually I prefer Windows 11 Compact/SuperLite by Ghostspectre over Tiny11. As you can install additional languages/keyboard layouts to it (on Tiny11 you're stuck wiith US-EN language and keyboard layout). And print spooler is disabled and removed while ghost spectre keeps it enabled on compact version and only disabled on superlite (and can be enabled). Plus ghostspectre's ghost toolbox is awesome.
@@JulMik Microsoft Store is crossed out in a previous image... but that may be inaccurate since Edge WASN'T crossed out in that image, but later he said that it isn't included as well?
I'm just going to finish all my conversations with a partial sentence. When people ask me why I'm going to say, "So you can loop all that if you were recording."
Windows 11 and Edge is honestly my favourite setup, I don't understand why people hate on them in August 2023, like they're both literally so fast and reliable, i couldn't imagine still being on Win 10
Hold on, il tell you why... 1. The UI. The UI is a piece of junk, why doe they need to change things every time once again just when i got started to get used at the windows 10 settings menu and start menu? Very stupid! Also why taskbar at the center, eww! 2. Unstable I cant count the people having trouble with a windows 11 upgrade on my 2 hands... especially wifi driver issues. I have to reinstall them for people quite often, and thats horrible. Trust me... 3. Bloatwate Yup, laptops blowing the sh*t out of them while booting up, isnt right... this because of the bloatware on the laptop, you have to agree to that, it just is... 4. CPU and TPM requirement Windows got waaaay too picky with their system requirements... like you can perfectly run win11 on a pentium 4 with 4Gb of ram. I feel like this is yet another way to make people pay for new hardware, shame on you microsoft! Theres soo much more but im not making the comment any longer...
Honestly, Win 11 was forced upon me, but at the end, I don't dislike it after all. I think that Win11 is perfect for laptops, totally, I couldn't use a laptop with 10 simply because it lacks a few functions here and there and the OS is simply less polished for some things. But I strongly believe that Windows 10 is still the best option for desktops or to simply get the best performance out of a computer. Windows 10 is lightweight. Easily debloatable and the UI is faster/simplier, and easier to use. But it lacks functions, it feels old after using 11. Windows 11 is okay, but it's a fact that it's just an even more bloated windows 10, it's slower, glitchier, and leaving that aside, even if it has a good UI, the file explorer has been utterly fkced up, sincerely, it's horrible. The right click menu is sincerely the worst thing on this OS. It's HORRIBLE. But still, it's an okay OS. I'd say pick 10 if you can. I can't
Can we please have windows 7 back? Unpopular opinion… I enjoyed windows vista. It was so stylish and sleek, not to mention innovative and modern for its time. The issue with vista was not the os itself, but rather the hardware limitations at the time. I mean let’s face it most of us upgraded our old Xp and even Me machines to vista.
I hung on to XP, until it was time to move to 7...and that's only when I wasn't fully satisfied with 8. It's just so natural for a Windows user like me (been there since 3.0) to really wait n see until the almost 'perfect' OS (no other choice) sits in front of you. My worst experience was Windows Me (Millenium) my first ever downgrade and my precious lesson on not giving your hopes up on to a new OS (Longhorn, Vista, 8...etc) until everything settles down and stable.
vista is a windows 7 but 2 years later (meant to be in 2007 hence the name of seven) and with so many problems that I've never seen any serious system administrator running the computers under vista. to be exact some faved to stay on XP, showing vista is such a gateway to problems more than end of support XP was at that time. that's also why microsoft gave pro versions more time about EOL sec updates.
you can literally skip every second version cause they are crap and need more time. starting from xp it was great then vista was whack then windows 7 was good again. Windows 8 was a complete dissaster and windows 10 saved it again. I know there was some sort of windows 9 when i remember correctly but that was some niche thing.
i tried to use it on my second pc and it was just inconvenient at times. it could be useful for low end computers but at that point you should probably just stick to windows 10
Can confirm; Using Windows 7 in the modern era after the support date has passed is analogous to smoking - You might not develop lung cancer (security vulnerabilities) until it is too late.
Not that anyone would see this, but recently I’ve started to really like edge, purely when doing online work. I can download a file in chrome and edge will immediately open it up in a separate window. It also gives me access to make basic edits right there which is nice.
Me personally, I love to edge. Before edging I was sad cuz nothing used to work out for me but now that I can edge I am the happiest. I edge everywhere and I think everyone should

Even on my gaming rig I didn't need to download the video drivers, everything works. Your laptop built-in wifi card will also work because it worked on mind. Tiny 11 is good. Only a browser is missing. Once you have a browser installed you can download anything you like. You need Rufus program to flash Tiny 11 on a USB stick. Remember to backup a browser on a separate USB stick to drag and drop it in after installation. If not, you need to mess with the terminal and I have no clue how to use it. Back up a browser for simple solution.
