>Windows 11 feels like the culmination of a push to turn Windows into a walled garden service rather than a utilitarian operating system for generic computing devices
They cannot do this due to enterprise apps.
Maybe for the Home version.
So many companies are on older Win32 ERP software that do not have a webapp.
Also games. All Steam games etc would stop working.
They tried with Windows 10S version and nobody uses that.
But wow that pcgamer article shows the mess. Im on a i7 4790k PC w Windows 10 but with 11 I might not get updates??
I haven't actually had any Windows 10 issues... runs all the PC games ever made, all the Windows apps. I try and disable all the telemetry in UI, turn off animations, use Firefox to minimize the privacy issues. Takes a while but once its setup it just trucks on.
