For what it's worth my experience with Windows 11 is that it's slower than Windows 10 for whatever reason, even though I'm doing exactly the same things in exactly the same ways, so it definitely echoes your assessment.

I personally think Windows has historically been the best OS for native development but I'm out. I've used Linux a ton before on/off since ~2003 but at this point it's looking more and more like there'll be no reason to ever install Windows again. I don't get who Windows 11 and all of these AI features is actually for but I know for a fact it's not for me.

Now I have to figure out how to actually get my Nvidia card to actually behave on Linux, or I'll just have to buy an AMD one again. Eventually I might actually start using the Steam Machine as a devbox; we'll see.

In the past, I have managed to get my Nvidia Cards working on Linux. It was a bit on tinkering but nothing too difficult.

Well.. that was over 10 years ago! I cannot comment today.

But the next time I purchase or build my own PC it will be AMD over Intel and Nvidia.
