Should you upgrade to Windows 11?

Question

Windows

I'm a coder, and sometimes I use perversions and programs I need, I'm thinking of switching to Windows 11, I've already seen a lot of good reviews, is it worth it? or not needed yet

Answer 1

Passed on the first day of release.
No problem.
I use PC as my main working tool.
I use:
chrome, ff, docker (vsl 2), idea, cart, ms office 19th, steam, epic, and little things ...
There is no 11th Windows. This is another update of the dozens.
She thinks of herself as follows:
Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.22000.469]

Answer 2

There are no pluses, the start-up and the lack of ungrouping in the taskbar ruined the whole impression

Answer 3

moved to an outdated hardware (desktop)
(script address https://github.com/AveYo/MediaCreationTool.bat )
happy as an elephant - impressed by the resource savings (w10 was without castrations, only its own easy tuning to facilitate)
the main use of the computer:
- coding VS (sometimes I build heavy projects, usually it's rebuilding open source serious libs for myself)
- WSL2 as an attachment to the point above
- DB, but not heavy, layouts for pp 1
- active websurfing
- no
ps games to the new start / taskbar adapted easily and satisfied. from tuning, only the vertical taskbar is missing. personal long-standing tastes :) ... but few people used it even at 10. so this is just a note. hardly an argument :)

Answer 4

Not worth it in my opinion. There are no pluses as such. If you buy new hardware, then install it with it.
For example, I plan to soon install visual studio 2022 next to 2019 already on my working computer. Because they started to cut out core 2.x and we still think it's better to start migrating to version 6 since LTS

Answer 5

I installed it a month ago, I liked it visually, subjectively it even became more pleasant MacOs
I didn’t notice any negative changes, as if I just installed a new and nice skin for Windows 10. The performance is the same, the workflow is the same (I don’t use the launcher, I’m used
to spotlight analogues to launch everything)
: .NET development / Docker

Answer 6

If the processor is supported by 11, why not? Personally, my 4770 doesn't support win 11, so I'm out of the loop. I would put it that way. This is called progress.
So take a look at your processor's support for windows 11

And all this fuss reminds me of the times when 8 came out, then 8.1, then 10.
And all blinkered, conservative old believers (namely, old believers who did not want to face novelty, learn something new and wanted to stay in their comfort zone) advised to stay at 7, because ... (even now it's funny to remember):
seven unkillable, proven, tra la la. It was strange to hear about the kill / indestructibility from people who did not use the same 10. So how could they know about this advantage of 7 over 10? Unclear.
As if new technologies and operating systems are designed to make the user's life worse. I'm on this subject, so that's enough.
As for the Start menu, the same conversations were after the release of wines 8 and 10, they say, the start is not the same. And now look at the interface 7, so you want to cry. And people do not use these Windows for the sake of staring at the start menu 24/7.
It is necessary to look not at the design, not at the "Start" menu (some kind of painful topic for some people), but at speed, convenience, advantages, stability, comfort of use, friendliness, etc.
Here is an example of the convenience and advantages of 10 over 7 (maybe it was in 8 too, but I can’t say for sure, I don’t remember):
installing drivers. If after installing 7 you needed to put firewood on the network card in order to go online and download other drivers, then with 10 you just had to put 10. Isn't this progress, isn't it convenience?
I don’t even need to watch tests and read about 11 to understand that if a new version of the OS comes out, then it must have a number of advantages, otherwise it would not make sense.
So it is faster, more stable, safer, more efficient (which may affect the power consumption of laptops), etc.
I think that you just need to put and feel for yourself, if possible.
