So if I understand it correctly, with Windows 11 Microsoft got rid of all the extra features and advantages they had over Linux? While also making it impossible to upgrade your PC unless you bought it yesterday? It looks like they are abandoning their Windows business…
Windows 11 is literally going to make me switch to Linux, they’re removing or making harder to access power user options and right click is basically useless everywhere in it
Imo windows 7 was the last decent one. After win 10 I'm making the switch to Linux. Windows is just too messy anymore. Feels like they just keep trying to slap bandaids on their OS and calling it a new feature.
seems like windows11 debloater will be necessary as it is in win10, but really why does it look so much like linux and last time i saw one was years ago.
This is a great video. Always wait and see, for everything Micorosft releases. Early impressions – Windows 11 is shaping up poorly. Linux Mint is turning out to be a great desktop experience.
i have been running 11 since the dev build was available. on a 6th gen i5 6500. shit is rad. no bad release this time. EDIT oh i forgot, yeah took me a min to find 7zip. thought it just didnt work at first lol.
When I was in grade school, when my mom would make me clean my room, I'd cram everything under the bed and hide it. That's what Microsoft seems to do to each OS… "Clean it up" by hiding everything somewhere. I just want a windows XP interface, let them change their crappy back end however they want.
Duuude. Windows 11 sucks. The dumbed down right click context menu sucks. Having to click some shitty more options button to get to my 7-zip context items blows. To my knowledge you CANNOT turn it off, grr. Only having 18 pinned apps on the start menu and not being able to group them or have some larger and many smaller pinned apps sucks. I think I had 40+ pinned items all grouped into Daily/Entertainment/Games/Utils/Admin sections and I could get to all of them. Not anymore. I have to scroll through screens, and I can't group things other than to try to put them together somewhere in the list. The text suggestions overlay does nothing except get in the way and be annoying. I turned it off. The font on the lock screen is well ugly compared to the Win10 one, which I realise is a subjective judgement call. But it does suck and you're wrong if you think it doesn't! Icons are pretty sucky. Centralised Windows start menu sucks but can be disabled. (That doesn't make it suck less)
On the plus side… It has to be said. I have had zero issues. Not one. I downloaded the second it went from dev into beta on my home desktop. The install worked, all my apps and games 'just worked'. The rounded windows look a bit prettier. I like them anyway. They don't help functionality at all. The terminal combo app that gives you access to cmd and powershell and more terminals is good. I found that and liked it straight away. Right clicking on the middle icon in the minimise, maximise, close trio of buttons on the top right presents a heap of different ways to snap the window to somewhere on the screen, that is both cool and potentially useful!!! I am kind of in the MS space now. I get a 1TB Onedrive with my O365 sub and I moved to Edge when it went Chromium. So I didn't mind the MS products just going. Not sure what it would have been like if I wasn't already using most of them. BUT I noted it didn't steal my PDF default back from Acroread, so that shocked me greatly!

It's just pure fun to listen from a mac person's honest reviews on this new mac windows, I mean Windows 11 works…lol
Microsoft working hard to keep the good/bad cycle. Fucked up right click menu and no side taskbar. Looks like its windows10 until 2025
Anthony = Like <3
Does it have dark mode?
ANTHONY THE SOFTWARE GOD IS HEREEEE
Windows 11 is already a fail for obvious reasons.
I miss windows 7
windows 10 is bad
Good info. Just 1 thing… I have windows 10 and have been using windows terminal with bash for long time
Damn pour one out for my bro SwiftKey
Anthony is such a genuine person and it comes through the more he's on camera. More Anthony PLEASE…!!!
Windows still has so much legacy content, I wonder how it can keep with so many fixes. It needs a major overhaul.
windows 2000 ????
why on earth would anyone use windows for productivity

How many bloatware this time
Open in windows terminal is also available in windows 10

if you are wondering what that binary code meant (at the intro of the video 1:15/ 18:25)
" its windows 3"
I'm super jealous of their storage capacity. 1,665,600 gigs of storage 0_o
jokes on you, i hate windows 10 so no way 11 will be worse…. right?

Will the promised GPU performance changes allow external GPUs to have a purpose?

I guess I'll wait for Windows 12
Why do you have an advanced settings tab if you aren't throwing split-screen HDR test mode in there?

"windows terminal" "brand new"
Everything that's cool : ME
Everything that's not cool: Everyone else

Yes

No more vertical task bar is ridiculous in a world of ultra wide screen and double wide screen monitors. I can't believe they're forcing that.
i need to watch this video on Windows 11
Windows 2000 was lost in traslation? =)

Wait, did you just say Windows 10 was good? lol
They'll have to pry Windows 10 out of my cold dead hands before I use windows 11! or in 2025 when I have no choice!
Look What They Need to Mimic a Fraction of Our Power – Linux
Windows should sell their company to someone who actually can make something decent
