I imagine hannibal used vista.

He would've found it's aesthetic quite pleasing

Exactly. The dedicated enthusiasts will probably find a way to shoehorn in Windows 11 security updates into Windows 10. Or pirate the paid for extended support.

And will ensure people have detailed guides on how to to do it themselves. Never doubt OS nerds driven by spite and vitriol. They ensured 8 and 8.5 failed and will not hesitate to do it again.

If I could I would still use Win98

There’s always Linux!

lainwithtea.bsky.social•7 days ago

I mean yes but it's nice to let people know alternatives besides Linux are out there and they are not completely boned. Linux is definitely not for everyone.

Mint has come a long way for new peeps but I agree got a name for this windows 10 community or a search prompt?

lainwithtea.bsky.social•7 days ago

I mean just searching online for community update projects for stuff like this will send you down rabbit holes and find people backporting features and things from 11 already

Thank you, wasn't sure if you had one you were eyeing.

These types of things tend to get MUCH more organized after the incident being prepped for happens because suddenly all at once a bunch of people wanting to contribute show up and expedite a lot of things

Which kind of linux?

queenrayna1337.bsky.social•7 days ago

For older hardware I'd guess something like Lubuntu or Puppy Linux would be best.

Personally for me it's WindOS 7
