Same here. I can't stand windows 11 feels like someone's taking over my OS. I was so upset that I wrote an article about it[1].

I was a Windows user for a long time until Windows 11 came out that was the last straw for me.

> But sometimes I like to visit private LAN-parties. Which I can't really do with Linux without spending half a day with debugging.

Man I havent played at a lan event in a long time. So many games now don't seem to support that. All my friends I use to play with have moved away. I would be nice to attend a LAN event again someday :D

Well, maybe I have to clarify what I mean with these parties :D Me and three friends meet from time to time, and each of us takes their PC to a friends home, where we game and watch movies from friday evening to sunday afternoon. Sometimes we play local games but a lot of times we'll also play global multiplayer games. It's just about being physically together for a couple of nights :)

A selection of games is Minecraft, Valorant, Left for Dead 2, CS:GO, Age of Empires, Stronghold, The Forest/Sons of the Forest, Valheim and some others.
