I find this mildly infuriating, I only use Windows for work, I even personally purchased Windows 11. Local account and disabled as much as I could. I personally do not like Windows or Windows in general.
Well, now I do an update and they throw this up like I need to walk thru these steps (again). Not even a “Skip”/“Don’t remind me again”. Windows is not what it used to be and after disabling half the Microsoft stuff I’d expect not to be bothered again. It’s really a built in ad more then anything.

Just upgrade back to Windows 10.
You spelled GNU/Linux wrong.
Linux has a host of there problems, like checking if your laptops hardware is compatible. Which isn’t a thing for Windows.
Having to chose a distro also sucks. You have to make pro and con lists and shit. With this distro my WAN card might work, but this distro has more of the programs I need on there package manager and this distro has newer packages but fewer…
This is the point most users quit Linux, before Installation
sure there’s a little bit of learning and set up at the beginning, but the rewards vastly outweigh the cons. If you change your mindset a little bit you’ll see the variety of distributions as a blessing rather than a curse, as you’re not locked into only having a single OS to choose from, and it can new a lot of fun trying out all the different styles and setups. Ultimately though as long as you choose one which has a largish support community then it doesn’t matter really which one you choose.
Yeah, but with Laptops there will always be a time you have to open up the terminal and punch in 20 commands from a sketchy tutorial from 2015 to maybe get your fingerprint reader to work. How realistic is that for the 90% of user population which do not work in IT?
Distro hopping is not a popular sport and is not representative of Linux as a diverse ecosystem at all.
Nobody said a word about distro hoping so I don’t know what your point is
