again, it's really not evidence of people hating it, you are just talking about adoption numbers. Trying to infer peoples reasons is basically just guesswork.

I'm a people and I hate it. Loathe it, even. Ergo, people hate it.
Together with what I hear from people who use Windows 11, it sure looks like a lot of people are unhappy with what's on offer. I doubt Microslop are willing to publish the relevant numbers or make surveys to figure it out, since that's not going to tell them what they want.
Macworld published some estimates regarding Liquid Ass, and they look very red indeed.[1] I doubt Apple are in a hurry to publish anything about that either.

you understand the problem with what you just said right? Seems your bias is overriding your ability to look at the evidence. Not only that you are doubling down on your position. From my quick investigation on user satisfaction surveys of windows 11, it pretty much seems positive, but they all seem pretty limited in scope. I'm guessing most people are mostly indifferent and don't mind windows 11 and just use it. The amount of people complaining would seems to be a fraction of a fraction of a percent of the user base. I would guess this is what Microsoft sees also.

There is no actual evidence for anything. Nobody is running actual surveys of any scale, since that wouldn't benefit anyone. There is only circumstantial evidence, and that continues to point to Windows growing worse.

And from mine it doesn't, and I have no reason to trust whatever Microslop says.

Hmm. I wonder why.
> I'm guessing most people are mostly indifferent and don't mind windows 11 and just use it.
I'm guessing most people bailed on computers and started using phones and tablets instead, since the user experience continued to be hostile. That's what I'm seeing from non-gamers in non-work settings.
And if most people are indifferent, but a minority fucking hate it compared to what came before, that's not good. That's bad. That's a regression from what came before. The indifferent remain indifferent, while the angry multiply.
> I would guess this is what Microsoft sees also.
I would guess they don't want to see. It's not in their financial interest to see. They have telemetry out the fucking arse, but don't care to use it to improve the user experience. They have better things to use that for.
