I tried Win11 about 3 months after the initial release. That was a mistake.

Some of my wares of the seven seas did not run properly (like asassins creed valhalla), and there were performance issues when gaming. So I rolled back to Win 10.

Any fellow sailors out there daily driving 11? Have the big bugs been ironed out yet? Any glaring issues?

I realised this as I was pulling up the bookmark "Wait, doesn't Microsoft own GitHub now?" lol

I honestly don't think they care, as long as people are using Windows.

I don't think Microsoft cares since they shouldn't be making a lot of money from retail keys anyway. A majority of users get an activation key when they purchase their computer. And businesses use volume licensing. A small minority of people who pirate an activation key is not a lot of money lost in the big picture.

Also with the amount of telemetry going on in Win 11, the data they collect more than makes up for the slight loss in revenue.
