> At the start of the year, Microsoft generated a lot of goodwill among Windows 11 fans when it announced its big plan to fix the operating system in 2026

The only thing generated was boatloads of incredulity and some laughs.

Yeah, I remember the same. Also, "Windows 11 fans" sounds like an oxymoron.

Might be considered "Windows 11 Hostages" instead given they've dropped support for using anything else.

Wondering how long I can hold out on Win10...

It could relate to the amount of *pu and system fans needed to run so much bloatware :)
