Hey folks I just moved over from to Windows 11 from Linux I was running a mix of Manjaro and Ubuntu. Well I love Linux and I’ve been a Long Linux user, the accessibility for disabled folks is a mess under Linux to say the least. I felt I need to switch back to an OS with a better end user experience for disabled folks.

I had a friend help me build a new computer and the installation went great. The only thing they had to figure out was a power management issue where my USB hubs were being put to sleep. Causing the machine to drop my trackball or keyboard.

Once I figured that out and switched around some power settings everything has been rock solid as far as stability. It reminds me of the good old Windows 7 days. I care about privacy but I was and I was easily able to set the privacy settings to my liking. I use a local account. To my relief Windows 11 Windows went through a couple of updates and my privacy sayings don’t appear to have changed.

I know Windows 10/11 tends to get a lot of crap but as long as you know what you’re doing I think people can have a great experience.

    Yikes how can anyone love spyware and adware. This alone is a big red flag for not using Windows, let alone love it.

      Accessibility is a big thing that doesn’t get the attention it deserves in so many cases. At the end of the day, even the most free and libre system is not a good fit if it’s a genuine struggle to use it.
