Windows 11 Pro is pretty good!

Windows 11 Home is pretty stinky!

I use 11 for work and 10 for my personal usage still.

I'm the same, but I would actually like 11 on my home gaming pc though. I've grown tired and sometimes frustrated with 10 after spending so much time with 11 now. 10 feels so clunky at times. And with me using startisback on my 11 pc i would say the whole interface of my 11 pc is way better than my 10 pc

For anyone reading this, you can easily upgrade your windows installation locally for free with "windows activation scripts" (hosted on GitHub).

It even has a oneliner you paste into a command prompt which guides you through.

And yeah it sure sounds shady, but it works great and Microsoft will only get money from selling my data as they would do anyways even if I paid.
