Can't upgrade my, albeit pretty old, computer to win 11 even though everything I need it for works just fine on win 10. So...if security updates stop next year as anticipated, I'll just install Linux instead. I'm not paying AI inflated prices on a new computer just so Microsoft's AI can exist on my machine (I'd disable all AI functions anyway).

I’ve thought about switching too because of this. I really don’t care about it existing I just hate the idea of it taking up resources and, like you said, inflating the costs when my use of it will be infinitesimal, if I use it at all.

Windows 11 updates bricked my PC for the 2nd time recently and forced me to revert the update. Shits fucking infuriating.
