So I have an old laptop from 2013 and WinBLOWS 10 chugs on this thing on good days. Today it’s struggling with yet another “update” that acts more like malware, it hogs 100% of your hdd and the actual install process can take upwards to an hour. So like MicroSHAFT wants me to buy a brand new PC, at a time when GPU prices are astronomical, all so I can run 11 on it. On what planet am I going to want to continue using your service when you’ve been this bad to me? Maybe if you buy me a new computer I might consider using 11 but I highly doubt Bill Gate$$ is going to send me a check in the mail anytime soon.
Gotta get off my ass and instal Mint soon.
One of my friends rescued The Bintop (a laptop that was found in a bin around 2012ish and was exclusively used to stream pirated media until it chugged to a near halt around 2019) just by putting Mint on it. Not even Xfce, just regular Cinnamon and it works better than when it came out of the bin.
