It’s just a waterfall of small features and improvements. Windows 10 stopped getting new features added 4 years ago and Windows 11 gets a major update at least yearly. It’s not like Windows 10 is incompetent, after all, OSes are generally mature. But it’s a collection of things where if you purchased a competitor or used a recent Linux desktop, you’d expect them to be there. Little things like native support for 7zip, rar, and tar files. Or tabs in file explorer. Or under the hood improvements like variable refresh rate, DirectStorage, and more complete HDR support. Those kinds of things you’d come from another OS released in 2025 and wonder why they are missing. It would be like going to macOS Catalina. It wouldn’t immediately seem old but if you came from Sequoia you’d find a lot of little things missing. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Features_new_to_Windows_11 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Features_new_to_Windows_11 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_11_version_history https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_11_version_history
