How long has windows 11 been out? Edit: Since October 2021.

Why do I use a “health” check to see if I can upgrade? (My PC can’t be upgraded, so I guess it’s unhealthy?)

Linux Mint is also an option 😉

Linux ~~Mint~~ is also an option 😉

Totally agree, especially for those who know what they're into.

For those who doesn't, I recommend Mint!

[-] Huschke@programming.dev 7 points 7 months ago

Seconded. Everyone who is not recommending Mint to new users is doing them and the community a disservice imo.

Thanks, I'll be looking into it now. I really don't want Windows anymore, but Linux has always sounded overwhelming to me.

[-] gingernate@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

Linux mint is not bad. Fedora is another good option. The overwhelming part is honesty the amount if options. But I would just pick a distro and install it, and you'll have no issues with mint!

And yet, whenever I see it, w11 feels like beta software to me. There's apparently stuff being added and removed all the time. Broken updates every now and again...

I haven't used Windows much for ages even though I tried to follow a little what was going on on that front, but it never felt that way with the previous versions.
