My first attempt at reading this: Microsoft announces recall of Windows 11
That would have been great. The very few good things 11 brought (tabbed terminal, text editor and file browser) have all been standard in major Linux distros for decades.
Not counting service packs, the first OS Microsoft “recalled” was Windows 8, where everyone got a free upgrade to a slightly less shitty 8.1, and then 10, which was also a minor upgrade. It would be very funny if they reversed course and showed people an intrusive popup with “Sorry, you are using the newest version of Windows, which will no longer getting updates. You are now able to return to Windows 10 which we can comfortably continue updating without feeling guilty. You can keep working, the operation will happen in the background. We will tell you when it’s time to restart.”
It would have made sense, the share of 11 among Windows actually users shrank in the past quarter despite it being the default option for prebuilt PCs.
