I upgraded my Thinkpad to Windows 11. Within a few weeks I was so angry with it, that I ordered a MacBook M2 and put my thinkpad on Ubuntu.
It’s a horrible OS that tries to remove any sense of ownership over one’s own PC.
- neogodless 3y agoUpgrading my Legion gaming laptop to 11 led me to enough annoyances that I tried out Linux Mint for gaming for 2 months. Ultimately there are quality of life and reliability issues that drove me back to Windows 10. But 11 is just so damn obnoxious.
- gosub100 3y agoI bought a thinkpad that came with Win11 and haven't had many problems with it, although I dont use it much. I didn't like it auto-syncing to the cloud, but I can see that being a feature for many. I completely agree with the removal of ownership. My biggest gripe is having to disable the "rage-bait" news headlines it constantly tries to sneak into the browser and start menu. After I disabled those, I looked into my outlook email (hardly ever use it) and lo-and-behold, it's filled with rage-bait news headline emails. I was mocking it to myself, like "Hey user! Here's a new $tragedy you can be upset with. Aren't you glad that me and the helpful marketing folks over at MSFT supply you with these continuous updates of rage, tragedy, and gloom covering the world?"
