Microslop is going to spend 2026 improving Windows 11. It comes after Windows update quality issues and complaints about the operating system.

    Too late for me. But thanks for telling me my computer wasn’t good enough for Win 11 and forcing me to install Linux. It was a breeze, and computing is fun again.

      I agree 100%. I’ve been trying to put my finger on why.

      Maybe it’s because using Linux doesn’t feel adversarial?

      Maybe it’s because Tux Racer comes pre-installed with some distros and brings a whole vibe?

      Maybe it’s the software center that prominently displays a warning for anything that isn’t completely free in either price or freedom?

      The Linux Software Center feels like my happy memories of getting to spend $5.00 in a 10 cent candy shop.

      Maybe it’s because it is where many librarians, educators and free thinker gather, and their fingerprints are on everything?

      Sorry for the random walk comment. I just keep thinking I should figure out the elevator pitch for why Linux feels more fun.
