Oh yay another Windows 11 being bad meme, and all the same comments about it too. Feel like it’s groundhog day cause this place only has 2 jokes that get recycled on repeat.
We need someplace to get rid of the windows complaints from people close to us or our own experiences when people expect us to use it.
I do agree though that the joke is getting old but when you’re frustrated with windows this seems to be the place to let off steam.
I think the post is more of a cope than a meme at this point.
First time?
When I was about a year old I found a bottle of Tabasco and got the lid off. Wondering what was inside I peered into the bottle and shook it.
Or so I’m told. I have no memory of it but my parents had it burned into theirs.
I didn’t like it apparently.
Putting tobasco in your own eye is still easier than getting sound card drivers to work in Windows ME.
I use windows for work, and I just had to update to Win 11 when I got a new PC.
Jesus Christ I hate it.
So many fundamental parts of my workflow have been disrupted. I have yet to find one change which I actually like.
I thought they did a pretty good job with Windows 10, but this one is five steps backwards.
How the hell do I unsee this
By pouring tabasco sauce in your eye
I hated Windows 11 because:
- Constant Telemetry
- Hogs resources. Examples include: Using 1/3 of my 1TB SSD and 1/2 of 16GB of DDR5 RAM
- Tons of vulnerabilities, several that remain unaddressed
- Forced updates
- The UI and start menu is hideous, search immediately searches Bing instead of my system for an app
I love Fedora 39 because:
- No telemetry, optional anonymous bug reporting
- Uses only 50GB of my 1TB SSD and 1.6GB of 16GB of DDR5 RAM on the OS plus GNOME
- Vulnerabilities continue to be patched through kernel updates (currently up to 6.7.7 on Fedora)
- I get to choose when to update my system
- I like my riced UI, the application menu is clean and search searches for apps on my system first with perfect accuracy
Did I prove my point?
No, The God would be sad of you did not mention the TempleOS, that’s better than your bloat sistem. ;)
I generally agree with your sentiment but I’m calling bullshit on a 300gb install. I work in a computer repair shop and load win11 more than 10x a week. Stock install with 23h2 and all updates, even with a GPU (big driver) is always under 50gb. A loaded down version of Pro with hyper V and a bunch of other shit including office is never even 60gb.
And unused RAM is wasted RAM. I have seen win11 run on 2gb ddr3. As you ask for more RAM, it will unload and make space for the new request.
And yes, I daily Linux and generally prefer it.

Personally I rather have the RAM left over for the applications to use up front, instead of the OS taking it all and then begrudgingly letting some of it go when asked.
That’s totally fair. It’s the eternal debate, even in Linux. There are bistros with both ideologies.
does anyone know how to downgrade to windows 10 again? please help!
Yeah, here’s a guide: https://www.linuxmint.com/download.php
Edit: Felt bad, here is an actual guide
Sense I’m allergic to capsaicin, windows 11 please. Although it’s fucking horrible. I prefer not to spend the rest of my life in extreme pain and blind. :/
That’s a thing? My god, TIL. That’s horrible. :( Just put half a Trinidad Scorpion Chili in my dinner yesterday. Suffering a little today but wouldn’t have it any other way - they taste amazing.
Was your asshole crying on the toilet? I know some people who love spicy, but their bowel movements are… unpleasant (or so they say).
windows 11 is really good, you just need to know how to use it.
O&O shutup 10, simplewall, adguard.
