    I’m getting in new hardware next month, can I still use windows 10 or will I miss something that will benefit the newer hardware by not using windows 11?

    I know it’s nearing EOL soon.

      As much as I don’t like 11, it is probably better just to keep up with security updates. If you are confident in your ability to avoid malicious software and websites, then I would stick with windows 10 for as long as you can.

          • has plenty user friendly distros.
          • can find and install software more easily then windows.
          • Has officia nvidia support drivers.
          • Can run .exe programs using wine/proton/steam.

            oh yeah, the roadblock nowadays is these companies actually enabling it for linux.

            adoption is the number one thing that can help

      Depends on the hardware. Intel Chips with big.LITTLE design (aka e-cores and p-cores) work better in 11 because its scheduler is built with core configurations in mind (unless a semi-recent update also brought that to 10. My information is not the newest. I replaced 11 with Linux pretty quickly)

    It broke a bunch of shit. I updated and suddenly I started running out of VRAM. Had to restore the previous version to fix it
