Windows is basically unusable these days. The performance of 11 makes Vista
look like a masterpiece.

That matches my experience with Windows 11 Pro. A nightmare!

  But as has been shown, you're easily scared! :-)
  
  Even "housewifes" successfully use Windows 11 (Pro).

The Hamster is dead. Long live the Hamster:

User-Agent: tin/1.6.2-20030910 ("Pabbay") (UNIX)
(CYGWIN_NT-10.0-WOW/2.8.0(0.309/5/3) (i686)) Hamster/2.0.2.2

Ridiculous.

Please elaborate. I don't have W11 Pro, but Home 25H2. I remember Vista,
although I didn't have it installed myself.

I have W11 in a virtual machine. I use it very little, but I do not find 
it a nightmare. What was a nightmare was migrating from W10 the virtual 
machine first, then upgrading the system itself.

Windows 11 is a lot worse. It is not relevant whether it is a Home or
Pro version. Inconsistent interface and very heavy on the hardware.
There are a lot of reasons why the change to 11 from 10 is not working.

A computer-illiterate society is condemned to slavery. Some basic bash 
coding and general Linux (GNU) introduction should in grade 7 start an 
after that never-ending stream of compulsory IT education for all!

Nah, we'll just tell AI what we want and it will do the coding for us. 
People will never have to think again.

You mean the fad that everyone else calls a glorified search-engine?

Tried it the other day to spiff up my bash script; it did OK but only 
when told to do make one single change. If allowed to get more involved 
it invariably screwed it all up.

Judging by that post, you need to go back to school to learn basic 
gammar and spelling.  :-\

Teaching coding at junior school levels is utterly pointless and most 
will never use it again. Schools need to stick to the basic "Three Rs" 
first, and do so without using computers and tablets.

Maybe, but NOT when it comes to Linux!  Linus is the same as Jeasus.

Do you want your children to go to hell?

Praise Linus.  Amen.
