I’ve seen a lot of complaints and Windows 11 on Lemmy, (ads in the OS, intrusive AI, SSD damage, privacy issues, etc.) I’ve gone to Linux on my laptop, but I don’t believe I can do this for my daily driver desktop. So if I’m forced to update to 11, I’d like to do so in the “safest possible manner.” Any guidance would be appreciated.

    I’d be very curious why you can’t use Linux for your desktop, especially if you are already using it on your laptop?

    As for the windows 11 question, keep in mind microsoft doesn’t want you doing this. They will try to undo those changes as best they can via updates. Stay vigilant if you truly mean to take privacy seriously and continue to use windows.
