I saw the news about the October updates, but your special version such as Enterprise LTSC 1809 seems to have longer support beyond that year. It doesn’t necessarily mean you need Windows 11—check your specific release notes for details. Some updates can extend support into 2027 or more.
This appears to be a link to a Windows resource. It seems to point to a documentation or support page.
Who speaks? I've used Windows 11 for a while and haven't faced any issues or clutter.
I prefer Windows over Linux, though I occasionally work with Windows. Right now I have two Windows 11 workstations—no heavy bloat. Some Microsoft tools have been removed, and AI is integrated everywhere. It feels very smooth and straightforward. Most developers treat it simply as "Windows," but it’s hard to say for sure. Is this lack of support really risky? I’ve run XP, Vista, and Windows 7 for years without issues.
There’s definitely some unnecessary bloat (apps like Clipchamp, Onedrive, Teams, Copilot, plus others I’m not remembering). It also feels like Legacy Standby has disappeared, especially on laptops, with a few small glitches around power settings—like they don’t work properly with wireless mice as intended. Many people think it’s a poor experience, which is mostly due to early adopters when it was quite unstable, and this perception is kept alive by updates like the 25H2 release that caused some SSD failures, even though most issues have been resolved. Windows 10 had its own set of problems too, but it’s just overshadowed because Windows 11 is newer and gets more coverage.
When comparing w10 22h2 and w11 24h2 side by side, w10 shows significantly fewer problems. It lacks any AI distractions and offers proper functionality, especially with tools like Malwarebytes or standard antivirus scans. 11 appears intentionally frustrating, pushing users toward Microsoft accounts and adding unnecessary features. Many should opt for w10 or Linux to avoid these issues, as w11 is likely to become even more problematic in the future.
I was evaluating the instability of Win11 21H2 versus Win10 1507 at release, but I'm not aiming to say Windows 11 is perfect. Honestly, I struggle with Windows 11 too. Just that calling it a "disaster" is an exaggeration.
Well, it's accurate that version 10 has its problems and bugs, but the main point is Windows keeps deteriorating with each release. I've mentioned having fewer issues with 10, mostly because of UI changes, but there are still some really confusing decisions in 11 (such as adding "copilot" to nearly every app). I believe the last stable update was around version 7 or 8. Honestly, people disliked version 8 and I haven't used it, but based on what I see, it felt almost flawless. I still use some features today, like the Sora system sounds. ¯\_
