> Windows 11, being deliberately unusable on older hardware that works perfectly well is enough incentive for more people to try an alternative

The extreme majority of users doesn't care about that, they'll stay on Windows 10, they don't give a single fuck about the fact that it'll stop receiving security updates.

The people who manage your work PC of course won't migrate away from Windows just because of Windows 11. But home users faced with a few hundred dollars of hardware replacement will probably consider a less expensive alternative. That might be just letting it rot. But it also might be ubuntu, mint, or Chrome OS

  • That's literally my point. Home users don't give a crap about the fact that their OS isn't supported anymore.
