From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Yup, I'll be moving over rather than go to win11, ads on my lock screen and search bar nearly made me jump from win10 and there is no way in hell I going to even try to deal with clippy3.0/cortana2.0

As a Linux user I see nothing really wrong with Win11 at least compared to Win10. I use both in a VM

Increased customer data collection, an ai "assistant" that might require registry editing to remove (I already did this once to kill Cortana for good), and it will require me to reformat my os drive. If I have to reformat and do a fresh install I might as well change OS and be free of their fucking ads as well.

Well I just turned off everything with Group policy as my machines are in an AD domain.
