I wonder if r/Windows11 would agree that “everything works.” Damn near every new update is bringing new issues with them. The entire OS is a privacy nightmare. Microslop is constantly shoving Copilot where people don’t want it. There a plenty of valid reasons why people recommend Linux, Apple, and even Windows 10 over Windows 11.
With “everything works” they obviously mean almost everything works almost all of the time. It is an exaggeration. Nothing is perfect.
The privacy nightmare only matters if you care about privacy, which the average user doesn’t.
Copilot can be disabled or just ignored in every software it is enabled.
There are also plenty of valid reasons why people recommend Windows 11 over Linux, Apple, and especially Windows 10.
I know you Linux users get bombarded with “windows bad” posts claiming nothing works on Windows. But reality is quite different. The average user doesn’t care about the things a Linux user cares about. And Linux users also tend to overestimate the capabilities of the average user.
Like, there are so many people in developed nations who don’t even have an internet connection. They are also part of the average users.
