I'm really pissed about the planned obsolescence thing. I have an i7-4790k from 2014 and a GTX 1080Ti eating any game I throw at it for breakfast, just set all options to max and play. What, I'm supposed to throw this machine out and buy a new one so I can run Win 11?! Seriously, wtf.
This is completely irresponsible and unacceptable in times of climate change and hardware shortages. I've been running Linux as my main OS since 2009 and only keep Windows around for gaming. I'm hoping Valve perfects their Proton technology in the coming few years to make every last game playable on Linux.
I really hope there'll be a massive exodus to Linux (or Mac, I guess), and Microsoft really feels this. I hear good things about Zorin OS and tinkered with it in a VM today, it looks really slick, versatile and user-friendly.
