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.

I try to justify that windows is okay for corporate, but that's requiring some hardcore copium.

Can't play league on linux

Actually a good thing

Yeah, my 2017 KIA has a touch screen for controlling navigation, radio, android auto etc. but climate control is controlled with buttons and dials like you described. It's modern enough to the point it feels safer than an older vehicle might, but I don't think I want a vehicle more modern than this.

It's not that it's too difficult, but having it this way is more inconvenient to the customer leaving them less inclined to make the call. Scummy behaviour all around.

I don't mind having a UI for things like navigation or android auto. What gets me is why do things like climate control need to be buried in a UI? If my windscreen starts to steam up mid-jourmey, the last thing I need is to take my attention off the road to change the climate settings in the UI where dials and buttons will do the job much faster without needing to take my attention off the road.

Honestly I find constantly having to keep on top of disabling questionable windows features and bloat (knowing I've definitely missed something) more difficult and exhausting than just using linux. Linux feels way more "easy and simple" to me than windows ever has been.
