I've never had an issue of this gravity on Windows. I use Linux and it has its issues as well. Stability is not why I use Linux lmao

Wait 3 weeks before applying updates and let other people be the guinea pigs. It's usually enough time for things like this to be caught and withdrawn by MS.

Most people don't have this issue. You are only reading about the less than 1%. Per usual, everything posted her is overblown and the linux trolls feed on it.

Because I haven't had these issues in 20+ years? 🤡

Same way as I do on Linux. There was a post a few weeks back about an Arch update breaking vlc if you don't manually install a new optional dependency after an update split the package.

This is the first Windows update that has significantly altered how my daily driver laptop works (read: for the worse).

It's too inconvenient to use a Windows computer anymore. I'm switching to Linux

Haven’t updated to windows 11 yet and probably won’t. Just gonna wait until I can afford a new PC then learn how to install Linux

I thought 10 was fine too, didn't like the new menu bullshit though. I use Arch by the way.

If windows 7 was still supported it would be my go to for the rare “I need windows” moments. Windows 11 seems sluggish to me

I'm using several of them too, but the update refuses to uninstall. Oh well, fingers crossed eh? Thanks Microsoft.

I so much want to, but the programs I run are partly windows only. I don't know how to switch yet. Next to that, I tried Linux once but was unable to reach netwerk drives from my NAS. I tried everything, none of the solutions I found actually worked. I seem to have a curse running into issues no one else had. Struggling my whole life with that. Today I spent the entire day fixing Kodi, which suddenly stopped working. None of the solutions on internet worked. I managed to fix it my own way, eventually. Just to play a video without losing my "videos watched".

MS is working hard to force me though. I'm almost as far as to say goodbye to apps I've used my whole life. Like Directory Opus for example.

Most likely an hardware issue, ZFS has seen similar types of corruption with certain drives under normal operation.

Start looking into desktop environments, everyones quick to suggest distros, but de imo is more what matters day to day, most distros just work and will help you grab the same stuff in different background ways and/or with different terminal commands.

They should all have de options or have community alternatives of them that come with a certain de like kde or gnome.

Close to windows, minimal customization (still more than default windows

Cinnamon

Iphone + cydia, opinionated base experience with extensions that can completely change the look and add stuff like panels/dock

gnome + extension store

Windows but ultra customizable, tons of settings and directly customizable from the ui itself by right clicking

kde plasma

Keyboard user, hand always on it, like shortcuts and code editor based customization with documentation

I've read in another article that NG Lv 1 means that the drive is recoverable and NG Lv 2 that the drive is unrecoverable.

My assumption was it had something to do with the drivers for the controller, and the update flooding it faster than it could take data and not caching everything it couldn't cram into controller DRAM, causing parts to just get dropped wholesale.

Just a heads up in case you haven't updated firmware on your 980. I wasn't aware of the problem and lost my c drive a few months back.
