Here are a couple of reasons why Windows 10 might still be the smarter choice over Windows 11 for some:

My last build was a 12900k on a stripped win 10 install. Has worked flawlessly. I have a MacBook Pro for work, and it is 10 times better than Windows. Probably will go that route in the future. I run the 5k Apple monitor for video conferencing, and the setup is just amazing and fast!!! ( not cheap! ). I did do an unattended debloated Windows 11 install on my grandsons gaming rig, and it has worked well, except I have to really watch updates on it as they try and sneak stuff back in. That is just so annoying.
Even better , Linux Mint . Ohh uncompromising freedom and zero pressure !
(yes , you can run Windows apps and gaming )
My new laptop came with Windows 11 so I downloaded and re-installed Windows 10 because I much prefer the layout.
Center bar I hate it, Extra context menus within menus to reach menus which I hate, you can't find any settings you actually want without actually go searching for them with search tools. different settings in different places that should be on the same place in mixed interfaces, still broken search engines, forced MS account which is outrageous! now forced encryption on the way, blocked apps to make UI better, stupidly boring minimalistic look. Windows 11 now comes with ads how nice is that, they removed the only useful text editor wordpad so that you gonna pay for office or use the stupid notepad. there is constant nagging questions and notifications ALL THE TIME interrupting your workflow in the notification corner, do this, do that, restart now, try office, update now, your onedrive is full, your defender summary, upgrade your storage plan, your bla bla bla, just shut the fffff up I DON'T CARE!!!!! many of which you can't even turn off unless you hack or use group policy editor which btw is only possible in PRO versions BTW. No Windows is turning into some self advertised bloatware that is everything else but good workflow today. it takes like 2 days to properly run in a new computer and turn all BS off after a new install to make it actually useful and I can promise that not many of my computers will run Windows after the support ends for Windows 10 next year, because only 1 of my computers have native support for MS stupid, I mean 11. and their made up demands for 11 and I don´t even want it
I'm going to borrow the phrase that Level1 Techs said when thinking about one word that comes to mind when using Windows 11: Adversarial.
12 gens cpu onwards do work better on w11
I think now 3 years into Windows 11 it is finally starting to be a good user experience. They should still focus on improoving it more and also on Windows 12.
You know what's even better? Linux. openSuSE Tumbleweed to be precise.
Windows 7 was the last MS OS that didn't try to dumb down the interface or make me do things I don't want to do, like re-enabling "features" every update that I previously disabled on purpose. I'm just not interested in all the stupid crap Win11 is pulling, like limiting basic customization options, forcing you to use a dock instead of start menu, burying commonly used features in the right-click menu, control panel obfuscation , and more tightly integrating monetization. Remains to be seen whether Win11 will turn out to have been another ME/Vista/8. For now, I'm running Linux Mint on a second NVME drive as an alternative, though I have so much of it working the same as Win 10 I might just end up moving to it as my primary.
The only thing I think windows 10 is better at than windows 11 is the system requirements, which quite unreasonably are waaaay too high. Everything else windows 11 does better. It is, like you said, basically an upgraded windows 10. Whilst you can't do the same customizations that baseline windows 10 had, third-party software offers a way better and more modern way to customize it.
Generally I believe that the hate for 11 comes from the loud minority online. Everyone who claims that it's worse in any way very likely didn't even try it yet. It's just the same hate-wave that also happened when we went from XP to 7 and from 7 to 10. Time is a flat circle.
Why Windows 7 Might Be the Better Choice Over Windows 10 and 11!
Primary complaint at this point in time is taskbar placement. I prefer it on the top.
When Windows 10 reaches end of life and becomes a security risk, next year in 2025, people with older devices not compatible with windows 11 requirements will be forced to switch to Linux, which is awesome! Lots of people will buy new devices so older but still powerful machines will be all over eBay for dirt cheap, which is also awesome! People will be paying people like myself, who know how to bypass the requirements, to upgrade their order machines to Windows 11 – which is super awesome! And people will be paying people like me to install and tutor them on Linux, which is the most awesome of them all!
Advantages and Disadvantages when using Windows 10 & 11 are :
Windows 10 is Better :
Windows 10 has a Second Digital Clock in the Taskbar, so we don't need an additional Widget Software. However, Windows 11 needs additional Widget Software like Rainmeter and Elementary Widget to show a Second. Even though starts from Windows 11 22H2 Moment 3 Update has a Clock, but needs more Power, especially for Laptops.
Windows 11 is Better :
On Windows 11, we don't need any Screen Recorder Apps like OBS Studio, or even Gaming Bar (Xbox), because it has a Screen Recording Feature in Snipping Tool. But, in Windows 10, we need to Install Third-Party Apps for Screen Recording because Snipping Tool is still a Classic App, and Snip and Sketch in Windows 10 don't have a Screen Recording Feature.
Also, in Windows 10 there are no Tabs in Notepad because it still uses a Classical App. But in Windows 11, we can use Tabs in Notepad. Also, we can Close our Notes without Saving to the Folder in Windows 11 Notepad, but in Windows 10, we cannot.
w11 resources management better than w10 [myth or fact ]
Windows 11 is better. It has blue toilet paper wall paper and rounded window corners! What more could you ask for? 🤔
WTF!! Microsoft add Copilot in Windows 10 also.😂
Just a small thing to change : Windows 11's start menu could be shifted to the left using settings. (Officially in Settings application)
What I like about Windows 11 is that it has a better settings menu, and it is more user-friendly. But Windows 10 has a better start menu.
Yeah, I don't have a "Major" issue with Windows 11, just 10's of little issues everywhere. Lack of customisation is a big one, you can't change the start button from baby blue, cant have small icons on taskbar, or move it from the bottom, start menu funtionallity is not just diffrent it is reduced and yeah it's so large. Look at them side by side, you could convince someone that Windows 10 was the new improved user experance based on the shell.
Personally I don't see any difference. The reason why I use windows 10 is that I prefer minimal and smoothness rather than a polluted UI like windows 11.
I use Linux on a laptop test bench (currently Ubuntu), Windows 11 23H2 on my desktop, 2 android phones one with stock pixel android and the other with grapheneos and an iPad Air with iPadOS 17.6.1. I’m content with this and that’s a good thing
W10 is better for some but not everyone. I loved W10 but would never go back. Both 10 and 11 were super stable for me.
Stability! A big yes on that one. I went back to Windows 10 (and completely removed Edge). Tired of all the bloat. Co-Pilot, Recall, Bitlocker, Edge, Bing, and other features MS keeps piling on and forcing down our throats. If MS would just put these extra features in their Store and give users the option to install them, 11 would be a better OS.
I keep saying Microsoft took waay too many steps backward with 11. And nothing will change my mind, end of story!
