Half of gamers on W10. Why?

I like the cope the baby ducks keep coming up with. Once you delete the third-world, Windows 11 penetration is over 80%.

Same reason there were plenty of users on xp after it was deprecated, 7 when deprecated...
They are poorfags or don't know you can bypass the hardware requirements pretty easily

7Chad here, not our problem

>>106116722 (OP)
Fake news. Windows 10 is less than 40%. It's nowhere near half.

>>106116762
7 hasn't been "chad" since 2012

Unless Steam doesn't survey the third-world, your "akshually" statement is as pointless as the rest of your life is.

>>106116722 (OP)
Have you seen W11? It's slow and overall disgusting.

And W10 still has years of support left if you're not retarded.

Why are some people still resisting upgrading so hard anyway
Win11 is already a solved OS, you can get IoT LTSC version and debloat the shit out of it just like you have done to Win10

>>106116924

There is literally no point.
Everything works fine on W10.

Using an old version of Windows will never not be based. It makes memesters and trendsters seethe so hard their sad uneventful lives are unironically impacted by people they will never know who have the nerve of using a le old le loodite os over their le ebin le new le maymay os.

You know what's even more based. That maybe they are right that you are making the world a little worse for them, but not you.
>but what if they become le botnet
Not my fucking problem lmao. I'm not using my old system for anything sensitive or important. Like i care lol.

>>106117109
I got LTSC, but it's not IoT. Is there a way to change that without installing shit risking my stuff? AFAIK it's a registry change between the two.

My company has a long running support ticket open with Microsoft where an explorer bug keeps closing windows. Meanwhile, all the w10 machines in the office are fine using the same configuration. We even installed a fresh W11 OS image and it still did the same thing.

W11 is infest with jeet programming.

Windows 7 is still more usable than linux, excluding support for latest hardware. You can technically install it on up to date workstations despite that they don't really support windows 7. Regardless, all hardware from its era works just fine with it, and its mostly more comfortable to use than linux. Older proprietary productivity software from Windows 7 era, like photoshop or sony vegas, still mog modern linux alternatives like gimp, krita or kdenlive.

There's not a single windows computer at my company. Everyone use either Mac or Linux. Our CTO doesn't even allow us to use windows anyway.
The closest we have is a windows VM in a server somewhere but it's not even used for production stuff.

Was /g/ always this bad? Somehow it feels like a more nonsensical board than /v/, and I say that unironically.

>>106117318
were you making these schizo posts during the win7 to win10 migration era too?

>>106117361
>Was /g/ always this bad?
Yes but mostly no. It's only the last few years that Windows shitters have had enough temerity to post on /g/ with brazen abandon. We've had some incarnation of /fglt/ for a decade and other threads with a similar idea but different title for longer than that, but /fwt/ is a relatively recent invention by comparison. There's always been some Windows vs. Linux shitflinging, but before the board/website grew as much as it did, and before most of the Wintards made themselves comfortable here, everyone was old enough to remember pre-Snowden "erm well ACTUALLY the government doesn't care about you so why would they spy on you" and then the post-Snowden "serves you right" threads after PRISM got leaked and everyone was smug about being right about shitting on Windows users. Zoomers and Indians don't remember or care.

Most sharteens are on this board for some reason. They call you babyduck if you don't use latest Windows, and a tranny if you like anime and Linux.

I won’t upgrade beyond windows 10 22h1 because I refuse to let M$ rob me of Windows Mixed Reality

>>106117408
Nope. I just never updooted from 7 and that's pretty much it. Wanna use modern commiepedotroonware? Be my guest, but don't lie about someone making objectively better decision in this regard.

>>106117014
>Mental gymnastics
NTA, but the other guy is right. Everything runs fine on Windows 10. If it doesn't run on Windows 10 then I don't want it and it should fuck off, just like you.

>>106117614
> They call you babyduck if you don't use latest Windows
'teens actually dislike nuslopware o algo. and the term "baby duck" is used by brown microsoft shills to make people updoot to the latest windows, not the other way around.

>>106116722 (OP)
Let me guess, one of the last updates to win10 will brick the system or introduce a shit ton of bugs and vulnerabilities?

>>106117684
Unfortunately the niggercattle will gladfully do Microsofts bidding to the point of subverting existing projects, sperging out over "MUH EOL" as if my fucking computer is a live service, and shitting on those who don't conform to astroturfed corporate standards.

>>106117634
Offline maps also don't work on 11, neither does anything else really

>>106117764
>niggercattle
Don't care really. There are plenty of people ready to maintain a few basic programs that actually need to be up to doot in order to interact with the outside world. The rest is just about good, old software from 7 era, that will ultimately always work.

>>106116722 (OP)
Same reason I didn't switch to 10 until I was forced to. 11 sucks asshole.

>>106116722 (OP)
Because W11 sucks, retard. I have to use it for work and I will never voluntarily use it on my home PC.

>>106116762
duck bros, my steam downloads are all corrupt and stuck at 24,6 MB....

>>106117361
what's even weirder is that even if I factor in deliberate bad faith arguing, people trying to be purposely obtuse, etc., it really shouldn't be difficult getting actual info because again, shit's hard science, you know like how the number 2 is larger than the number 1 and nobody debates that
with actual comparisons and citations it should be plain as day to see which tech is actually superior based on what you're looking for but it's like this board is verging on /x/ levels of being incomprehensible

>>106116797
Chad has a thinkpad.

>>106116722 (OP)
What else do you use? It's either win10 because certain things aren't purposefully supported in earlier versions just to force you to use this shit, win7 because it's still the best or linux, there aren't any other operating systems.

>>106116722 (OP)
I hate "upgrading" an OS. I want a clean install, but I love my current system and I am way too lazy to reinstall everything.

This

I use W11 but lets be honest, Microsoft doesnt need to release a new OS every 5 years when they can just update the previous OS gradually to have all the new features.

w11 at this point is a overhauled OS, until recently it was the same as w10 under the hood with a reskin so there was no point to not moving unto it but since the very recent overhaul it's still in open beta test so it's ideal to wait a bit more

>Windows 10 EOL

It's fucking over for me.

>>106117361
It was way worse, bait and stupid threads dominated and it felt like people were shitposting faster, now it feels like there are smarter people but who reply less so there's less of an incentive to return here

Hi grandpa

>>106116722 (OP)
It works and they are too lazy to upgrade as its not like computer 2 is about to be released. They know that Win11 has like nothing to offer as they have heard moist critikal say and thats all they need to know. If you dont like humans doing this maybe the human race isnt for you and you shouls kys as every part of business and government is like this. They fr do not and will not care enough to dive into specifics. Their computer isnt where they live, unlike you all.

>>106116752
>bypass the hardware requirements
And why would you do that?
Seriously question, because i almost did that, and while i was waiting five minutes for the Win11 installation to boot, i was thinking to myself: "What the fuck am i doing?"
I then kicked it out and installed Win10 LTSC.

If Microsoft says that Win11 doesn't run on this hardware, why would i disagree? Why would i force myself into a fucked up state, where any random update could wreck it, because the CPU doesn't have some instruction it now requires.
For me, it seems like the dumbest course of action.
Because even if you just stay on Win10 Home and do nothing, without updates, you still have a usable system that isn't going to randomly break, because it supports the hardware.

microsoft windows 7 stopped being available for OEMs in 2016. All modern hardware from 2020 and prior works on 7. Visajeets know aboslutely nothing about whats new or modern or whatever indian cope their binggpt tells them to write. To this day most software still works on 7. Especially if it doesnt use CEF as its faux bootloader. I can go load up practically any garbage made in china or jp on a win7 shitbox and it will run with no issues because they dont go out of their way to sabotage their product to make microshart or google happy

And people are soon going to regret abandoning 7. Now videocards and other pieces of new hardware are being built in such a way they wont support old archetecture. The corpo faggots want to phase out all old shit and force you into their SAS walled gardens designed by ai and ran by h1visa holders.

>>106118275
you must updoot to the latest software and agree to the draconian tos where you sign your ditial soul over to some street shitter. The next time someone lists win7 cves or some other babyduckcope, copy and paste the text into a .txt file, and look real hard. 90% of the time its ascii characters written from a hindi keyboard. microsoft pays hindus to shill 11 nonstop.

>>106117764
its absolutely disgusting watching people boot lick for what is essentially planned obsculence. Steam rolling out a new algo to fuck over win7 users is a great example of this menality in play

>so yeah we did something thats better for us... kinda gonna suck for you. oh we probably should have warned you but lol not our problem ;)

you have one group of people who simply want to be a left alone, and then you have an entire industry dedicated to
making their money by spying and fucking you over 24/7. They say its to help cpu loads but its weird, i have basically no cpu load when downloading on steam on my win7 shit box. why is that? because theres no win11 botnet reviewing my every move and scanning every bit of data 24/7
