Many are rollback to Windows 10, but Linux is increasing as well.

I like Windows 11. But only as a thoroughly neutered “secondary” OS to dual boot with Linux.
If I had to use it as my only OS, I’d pull my hair out. Same with desktop Linux TBH. There’s stuff that’s just painful in both ecosystems.
I share this opinion. Both OS have their strength. Haven’t used Windows in a long time though. Don’t really know where to get it any more?
