If SteamOS doesn’t show up we are skipping and waiting for win12. I feel like this is winME days.

Not a surprise. Every major update produces more and more overhead. I can confirm that in task manager.

Unsupported hardware on w11 on the test, so pretty much meaningless. Also w11 is dogshit.

Yeah no shit. File explorer FUCKING LAGS when right-clicking to bring up the menus. WTF were they thinking vibe coding this shit?!

> In case you’re wondering, all six laptops used in the tests were the exact same model: Lenovo ThinkPad X220 equipped with an Intel Core i5-2520M CPU, 8GB of RAM, and a 256GB mechanical hard disk. The device does not officially support Windows 11, which likely contributed to its poor showing.
As I said last time this was posted, interesting methodology.

Since forever if I accidentally forget to save something I’m working on auto save keeps it! Even on my Mac. But windows 11????? Auto save is NOT working like word 2007 DONT FORGET TO SAVE

This is what happens when you keep firing half your work force and lose institutional knowledge chasing short term shareholder value.
Your products turn to shit.

why are threads like these always filled with people who simply don’t know how what they are talking about or how to use a pc correctly or that there are settings they can use to accomplish things they want, or that their hardware is just GARBAGE yet blame all their problems on the software?

Wait until you benchmark against Linux

It truly is terrible. It is very slow and it eats up so much memory just idling.

Makes you miss windows Vista.

Recording telemetry on every mouse click and image doesn’t help, but sending it to Microsoft kills everything.

Even though the test was done on unsupported hardware I can bet that on modern one it’s still slower than previous versions

This youtuber spent a lot of time to conduct a lot of tests that gathered pretty useless information. Not saying W11 is perfect (cough, file explorer,) but I thought the general ram usage metrics were killed off long ago. Come on people, if I have the ram, I want to use it to boost performance. Also, toss out anything appliction specific. Earlier versions of windows ran apps together like a no questions-asked swingers party. W11 practically creates a virtual machine of itself to run an app for the added security (which is amazing but terrible for performance.)

My windows 11 runs like shit. Even after a clean install. Feels like explorer needs fixing. Constantly having to click the same folder, waiting 20 seconds and finally 6 of the same opens. Constantly having to restart explorer.

2nd gen i5 and a mechanical drive. Using **15 year old hardware** for modern OS benchmarking.
I don’t know how they overlooked the Cyrix MMX line and the Quantum Fireball drive /s

We are the Bloatware. Your wallet will be assimilated as you are forced to an endless cycle of hardware upgrades.

I hate windows so much I switched to Linux. That being said, the machine tested should be a machine that supports Windows 11 so the tests are fair.
A new OS running on old hardware usually runs worse than an older OS running on older hardware.

I just made the switch to Linux. It’s not perfect, and occasionally I fuck something up playing around with the terminal, but it just runs so much better.
It’s also *simpler*, which I was not expecting. There’s nothing on it that I didn’t put there. It’s been really nice. My entire Steam library runs pretty well off it too (w/ Proton), which was also a surprise.

Testing Win11 on hardware that does not officially support it and then acting surprised feels a bit dishonest. Ik there is Plenty to criticize about Win11, but this setup muddies the results .

I hate how slow windows explorer is because of OneDrive. I’ll save a file to my desktop and windows explorer freezes up for a second because of OneDrive. So annoying
