Statcounter reports that Windows 11 continues to lose its market share for the second month in a row. Windows 10, meanwhile, is gaining more users and is now back above the 70% mark.

I literally haven't had ANY of those problems running Windows 10 or 11 FWIW, not have any of my friends or relatives.
