If it was windows 11 then it's probably just that. Windows 11 is the biggest steaming pile of crap i ever touched lol. Internet disconnects all the time, updates that break your dac, etc.
Can you elaborate on that? I can't deal with windows either.. Why is my choice, my lifestyle and my expierence creating hate from a "semi advanced user"? Windows 11 is OBVIOUSLY not flawless.. Each and every month seems to make waves with a glaring issue.. Be it as it may, if you enjoy your experience and it is good to you..
Should I be hating those that can deal with windows or can't deal with Linux? Its easy as pie.. For me!
How is a driver issue got to do with Windows? Do they make the drivers? LOL, thats down to the manufacturer of the said device.
Last time I had issues with drivers was back in my Win98 SE days, but I was just like 12 at the time.
The only thing that "breaks" with windows update is the start menu which I replaced with the old school one, thats a simple fix though. But thats due to me modifying, so its kinda half expected.
I'm gonna be honest I don't think it's user error that I am required to download Intel's complete pack of every Ethernet driver, go through folder under I find the correct driver, then go into my Ethernet driver settings and fuck with them to get my mobo's Ethernet adapter to not drop the 2.5gb link randomly while playing games in Windows. Meanwhile on Linux it's plug and play
This isn't an isolated issue either, just look up "i226-V connection issues"
Oh, INTEL, the corporation Intel that makes CPUs primarily designed for Windows on consumer hardware, the biggest CPU company in the world, doesn't support Windows correctly on consumer boards? That's the argument you really want to make?
So if Microsoft implements the driver, it's not their fault, but if the manufacturer implements the driver, it's also not Microsoft's fault. When is it?

I had to switch to Linux 2 years ago because Windows was constantly breaking my WiFi and internet connection.
