I’ve got a really beefy PC with Windows 10 on it. Apparently it “doesn’t meet the requirements” for Windows 11. Hopefully that means I’ll never be able to get it in an update.
Due to Microsoft’s insane forced update policy, I’ve moved to an M1 and am de-Microsofting everything in my setup. It doesn’t feel like my computer anymore.
