The timeline so far:

  • Microsoft launches K2 initiative to fix Windows 11 issues like mandatory updates
  • immediately pushes Windows-breaking updates
  • doesn't deliver promises, or offers temporary half-measures
  • Extends Windows 10 life

This is a disaster

I love it when procrastination pays off.

If Windows 11 is bad that's a good thing for the Open Source Community.
