I've been using it for 6 months and it really does feel more like Jeetware than ever before. If it weren't for file explorer tabs, improved ryzen performance and new games soon requiring Win11 I'd go back to Win10 LTSC IoT in a heartbeat.

At this point I'm even considering giving Linux another shot, but last time I tried it, it didn't work properly with my printer (even after hours of tinkering in cl), many packages where outdated and badly maintained, unistalling something would often mess up dependencies for other programs, no good alternative for photoshop or paint.net, puts files in even more random places than Windows, games with proton where a hit or miss and required hours of tinkering and still some quality settings would just break the game, constant crashes, bad performace etc.

performance is worse under win11 for all cpus, the only thing it has is better hdr if you can even give a shit about that, games wont drop 10 for a long time, just like win7. steam didnt even drop support for it until last year.

Install CachyOS

Is that really windows fault?
If programs weren't so bloated windows operating system would have more resources to install more of its own bloat

The fucking file explorer crashes several times a day. They need to fucking fix that trash.
Plus im pretty sure Linux has had tabs for decades before windows

I think this was because battery optimisations where activated by default for programs such Spotify limiting the framerate. And yes, even on desktops with the power profile set to maximum performance.

Who comes up with names like this? Retarded, unappealing.
What is the etymology of this moniker, does it refer to "cache" or something?

Win11 24h2 LTSC IoT just works on my all AMD machine.

>>105620078
Love that shit. If I wasn't too much of a pussy, I'd actually install it on my gaming PC but for now I only have it on my handheld.

>>105619989 (OP)
i'm forced to use win11 for work and it's fucking unbearable. programs routinely hanging and you can't kill them with task manager. explorer itself hanging and you can't restart it with task manager. it's so fucking bad. someone needs to minecraft that stinky street shitter nadella.

Why not just use W10 LTSC?

good morning sir

>>105620059
Win 7 was only dropped because it got incompatible with basic security libraries, something like Win 10 which is functionally similar to Win 11 will be kicking until 11 is also deprecated.

Where do I get 'legit' euro keys for 11 LTSC?

I am trying to convince the owner of the small business I work to use it instead of baseline windows 11, so can't just massgrave

thanks i could help bro

False. Valve dropped w7 because their garbage client is CEF, and Google dropped w7 due to pressure from Microsoft like everyone else. The steam client still works fine on w7

Use arch or some noob distro based on arch and you won't have so many problems. Not that I know what the printer situation is like, those are always questionable DRM boxes which never work on windows either.
