  Aaaaaand pretty much any Linux distro looks and runs better than windows, full stop.

    I switched to Fedora KDE Plasma or whatever it’s called because I was so sick of Windows. It… literally does look better, lol.

    Surprisingly it works pretty well too. It’s not at all like the old days when I last ‘tried’ it.

    Ain’t ever going back. Literally no reason to do so.

    Yeah, well, Windows 11 is just Vista 2.0.

      Definitely worse.

      At least because they fucked over 11 for all the wrong reasons, whereas Vista was a clusterfuck because they were attempting to move past a bunch of legacy junk like the old driver stack.

  Hasn’t windows always run better with those disabled. I remember turning off a bunch of that stuff in XP.

    Everything runs better without that stuff, even games.

    It really only comes down to: can a human perceive a performance difference?

    Animations off in a UI basically always results in: “yes”
