    I love windows 11, windows 7 aero felt cheap and plasticey. I much prefer the minimalist look of 11

        I’m with you there. Maybe all the gray was off putting to people, but I liked that the ui elements were more visually distinct from the content without being overly elaborate and distracting.

        These days, my daily driver is a gnome desktop on Linux, and it gets the balance right without looking dated, imo.

          My personal daily driver laptop is also running gnome, I much prefer Wayland gnome then much of anything else. My work and personal desktop are Win 11 for AutoCAD and gaming reasons.

      While I don’t love the inserted ads in 11, we use corporate at work which doesn’t have them but I can still customise it with a pride vibe. Quite enjoying it this way.

        I’ve never noticed ads, I have a network wide ad blocker though so that’s probably why.
