my system is not eligible for windows 10 b GONE NTiggers
@kirby You can bypass the restrictions by using rufus to install the media on usb stick. It will work just fine, you are just missing some "security" features.

Why go into all the trouble to install an update no one really wants? 🤔
To my knowledge, there isn't a single thing that runs on Windows 11, but isn't compatible with Windows 10. Or am I wrong about that?
I suspect that latest release of Visual Studio might be like that, but not some software that a lot of people might want.

@m0xee @kirby Better videogame performance for one. Not all the updates have been backported to 10. For example the new Ryzen performance fix is 11 only.

I've been using 11 since beta so I don't really remember all the stuff that has changed for the better. It is mostly under the hood stuff. I turn off the rounded corners etc fluff anyways so my UI is kinda the same too.

Apart from the telemetry stuff it isn't really in any way worse than 10. So as long as you know how to remove the telemetry via Group Policy for example it is a moot point other than from ideology reasons. I think this has everything you need: https://www.privacyguides.org/en/os/windows/group-policies/ (the security stuff optional of course).
