It's still working for me lmao, my pc can't go to win 10 so it's stuck until I get a new one. Although, steam isn't going to work next year on windows 7
you can still use local accounts, like i use a local account on windows 11, just you can't create a local account in the setup but latest windows 10 doesn't supports that too
@@LegoMaster5197 nope, but since your able to type here it most likely would not affect you But yeah, you can turn a microsoft account into a local account in the settings, you unfortunately just cant do it in the setup
@@Chomperling they don't make it easy but methods still exist like bringing up the command prompt using hotkeys when you reach the account creation part or building a custom iso that automates most if not all of your setup.
And then when Windows 10 dies, they will force everyone to update to 11, and everyone who can't will be ELIMINATED by drone strikes. Or they'll just be thrown into bios every time they boot up
If you can, upgrade to 8.1 and get classic shell, some malware that severely targets windows 8.1 will come out and Microsoft will release an extended support update.
@@hugopereira5640now that windows 11 has been updated out of it's buggy state, it will be defended like windows 10 when an end of life support is announced
Microsoft is one of the most unsuccessful most idiotic company when it comes to software out there. Getting rid of features is something a company should never do. Customization and options are key to technology.
Originally I thought it would be a “windows 7 to 10” deal with me. I fought against upgrading for so long and once I did it wasn’t so bad. But with W11 I immediately downgraded back. The blatant and constant invasion of privacy will definitely keep my from it. I might upgrade if they let us disable all of the spyware mumbo jumbo.
No telemetry, and local accounts and I would consider it. Until you can actually 100% disable telemetry and install with local user accounts I'm not upgrading for anything. If it comes to it I'll go back to using Linux as my gaming OS. Steam has done well enough lately that I wouldn't miss out on much.
@@char7490idk man, it’s really been picking up steam lately. Will linux ever become more popular than windows? Probably not, but with all of the linux projects being made lately more and more people are switching over and thus giving companies more incentive to develop programs for linux. It just takes time.
@@char7490 I can't switch yet because of that very reason, but with valve investing so much into linux, I believe it'll be good by the time windows gets shit
So happy valve is doing so much to make gaming more accesable on linux because no way am i upgrading to windows 11. All valve has to do is improve the compatebilaty more and fix proton for anti cheat
AMD isnt compatible with windows 11 (from experience here) which is a massive issue. Microsoft probably will ignore that support ticket though. Its worse that it lets you update amd use it, but opening any programs will either give an error or crash the whole pc
There's like literally not that much difference between windows 11 and 10, you can make w11 look like 10 in 5 minutes. Wya less than it took you from switching back to w10
@@_vizec That's all Microsoft cares about is what they want and not what you want switch to Linux for gaming after this I might go back to Windows XP or stay stuck on Windows 7. I got Windows 10 as my main Operating System and HoloISO to play Steam games as my secondary Operating System to continue using my computer.
@@medojed8266 I wouldn’t be “bitching” about it as you say without first trying it out. And I didn’t find that it had the same in feel. There’s countless issues with the explorer.exe service and I don’t get access to developer tools without paying for them on 11. If it is the same then why do I have to pay for stuff I had on 10? Windows 11 is a developer’s worst nightmare
@@aftheboss2516 About let's say 75% of the times I boot my pc, they throw at me the option to upgrade to windows 11 and they give me 3 pop ups before I can log in
My favorite windows is 7 probably because when I was a kid my grandpa bought a computer and it's a windows 7 and I really like it the best thing in windows 7 for me is the wallpaper and the opening
@@OatmealTheCrazy The only valid reason would be an un-networked machine running some kind of niche software optimized for W7. Like a machine that might be in a lab or in a mechanics work area. Running some obscure piece of software that they have a perpetual license for
@@JoeMemesfreebsd-no flatpacks, os x-same as freebsd but hard to install on non mac, haiku-unknown,non popular, temple os is for gigachad only,react os is in alpha stage
@@XenuLordofTheSkyI wouldn't say that. Manjaro or Mind are good starting Points for a somewhat great user experience. Linux is fast as hell. My PC needs 100 Watts less power idle in Linux then Windows. And so on. Only downside most Manufacturer don't care about Linux so drivers and Control software are raly supported under Linux... I had to write my own Lian Li controller for this reason...
"Windows 10 will be the last version ever." I remember reading the splash screens during the install of Windows 95 and one of them said the same thing.
@@Flutronko me too when i used my mom windows 11 is just complete trash why the duck you need translate all fiture to native language and dear God i need remember all the option who were randomly change
@@flaminfrostythere be problems For example bastards from steam going to stop support of windows 8.1 (which I am on, and basically forcing me to uograde to windows 10)
Perfect timing for any users that can’t upgrade to windows 11 to keep their current hardware and upgrade to Linux. I have genuinely never felt more free and in control with a computer in my life now that I’ve finally made the switch. There is a learning curve but it is absolutely worth it.
Thats only because linux doesn’t have that much options as windows that it can be run on raspberry pi. Also you can’t really game on linux also linux isn’t simple like windows its only really used by tech coders and tech privacy doomers. Linux is good if your trying to make retro consoles and smart devices though
"Linux is always an option" r/linuxmemes: are you sure about that (no jokes they are kinda forcing you into linux, and thats not even enough they are forcing you into free and open software that i saw some memes about people hating steam)
@@Matto7634 true but honestly i do use linux just to make a raspberry pi internet router and smart devices. I actually made a arcade out of one thats why i like linux because you can connect homemade controllers to it to play pacman. Honestly i like windows more than linux.
I’ve been using Windows 11 for a year and a half now, and I’m pretty impressed. I thought Windows 10 would’ve been the better option but that turns out to be false!
I wouldn't be in much of a hurry. I could even expect extended W10 support being announced as we come near to 2025, for a year or two more. That or they officially drop the TPM requirement, many older machines still run just fine for many everyday tasks, and will continue to do so after 2025, and hopefully MS can realize that and just let them keep using W10 for longer.
I don't really care about the TPM requirement personally, for me the deal breaker is no local accounts. They REALLY want you to be forced to sign into a Microsoft account so they can sell all those tasty metrics their collecting to advertisers. Metrics aren't worth anywhere near as much to advertisers if they can't tie them back to specific MS accounts.
Its definitely going to take a lot of convincing for me to go to windows 11 from 10. I hear there's still a lot of gaming performance issues. Id switch to Linux if it weren't for the fact that most of my favorite games arent supported on there and im too lazy to set up a windows VM or installing both Linux and windows on the same system just to play my games.
With the success of Steamdeck fewer and fewer games don't support Linux (or more accurately don't support running in Linux under Proton). It's not available yet (as far as I know) but once Valve releases Steam OS 3 (Holo) you'd be able to install that on your desktop and have a similar experience to what the Steamdeck provides. Won't necessarily help with older games or ones infested with DRM, but for most newer games it should work fine.
@@orclev I do think that the steam deck is promising and all, but I don't care for handheld systems. I bought a switch lite and quite a few games for it 2 years ago, and maybe played it 5 times, but I know if I had the console version, I'd actually play it. I wouldn't be surprised if i had the same situation with the steam deck. Besides, I already have hardware that is more than capable of playing today's games and my bank account is empty 😭
@@justAmood8 you misunderstand. I wasn't saying to get a Steamdeck. Steamdeck is really just a funky form factor laptop. It uses a AMD processor and GPU and aside from the touchscreen and built in gamepad is bog standard PC hardware. The OS is literally a custom Arch Linux install code named Holo. Valve previously made their own Linux distro referred to as Steam OS 1 and 2 based on Debian which you can download and install on any PC. At some point they're supposed to release Holo as Steam OS 3 at which point you'd be able to install that on your current PC.
i have a laptop with Ryzen 5 2500u 8GB RAM and it doesnt support W11, so its a sneaky move to convince (if not push) people to buy new tech every freaking 3 years
I switched to Mint over a month ago and I liked Mint. 14 days later and I switched to Arch. I absolutely love Arch, it works perfectly for me and is incredibly fast, booting in around 10 seconds and shutting down in 5
I switched to 11 and I instantly regretted it, the design is nice and all but a main function that I use all the time is either bugged or removed form 11. When you open a folder and need to put an item in the previous folder, you can’t just drag it to the top and drop it anymore, you need to create a new window, and then have that be the previous folder, and then you can drag the file to the folder, it pisses me off every time I try to use it and then I have to manually find the folder I was in.
Tbh I would probably use Linux or Mac if it wasn't for the whole game situation. Sure, could always setup VirtualBox of something like that, but I'd rather just run my game on the bare metal
@@prankermats8338 it’s easier to copy and paste commands into a terminal when following a guide than it is to follow instructions to do the same thing using a GUI; you also don’t need to use the terminal to install some programs as most distributions come with a graphical “app store”
@@blizyon30fps86no it isnt... some games not work so well on Windows 11. Why should it be a Problem with the game if the game run before perfect on win 10? Easy to see that win 11 is the Problem
I figure that Windows users moving to Linux is as same to Windows users moving to Mac OS and vice versa. Yes, i might have to move to Pop OS cause "Fuck Nvidia Optimus"
@@Umbra_TuSlayer i don't gaming much over recent titles, I'm more of a "Old but gold" type of gamer so i don't have a problem with using Proton to run it ( eh, I'm also an avid Eroge gamer as well, so it shouldn't be a problem ) Bunch of recent AAA titles are shit in general, something that doesn't used up much of my GPU but still heavily fun is the kind of game i often play...
Sad that every windows computer I have are a little over 4 years old and none of them are compatible to install windows 11 sucks. They’re pretty beefy computers too, but I guess Microsoft loves bricking old tech
@@iplyrunescape305 Windows 11 and beyond is not supported for a lot of computers, so the only upgrade possible is some flavor of Linux. That's not being "based", is not throwing a perfectly good PC to the trash because it doesn't have some security features that are flawed anyways.
Windows 10 isn't really my favorite version of Windows because My first computer had wjndows 95 on it and seeing it on my IT class give me a lot of nostalgia
