I haven't used win11 yet and my work laptop uses win10 so although I can't claim any of the benefits you listed aren't accurate, my issues with windows go a little deeper than "win10 and earlier lack features 11 has".

On the WSL front, sure it's kinda cool and a way better programming experience, but it's still just linux under windows, so I find myself asking why I wouldn't just use linux, hardly a dub for windows.

The elephant in the room for me is the invasive software, of course. Win11 looks to be even more guilty of this with the likes of copilot and recall, but I can hard copium, bury my head in the sand and ignore these for the sake of work (with a smile on my face I guess).

Equally though, I simply don't find win10 enjoyable to use, and I'm not confident win11 is the solution. I use a tiling window manager on my home desktop so Windows' floating window manager isn't going to appeal to me. Installing and updating software is okay for some programs but annoying for others, never great. Sure, windows finally realised package managers were a thing, but winget leaves a lot to be desired for me.

Also, why does an operating system need ads? Genuine question.
