Back when they pull this shit, my PC bought on 2014/15 can't support win11(using i5 4440), which basically force me to upgrade my PC or risk getting infected, then i swapped to Mint and Mint look at my hardware and goes "ehh 🤷" and let me install anyway. The experience is significantly better, no begging me to activate cloud backup, no begging me to swap to an OS i can't install.
Now i bought a new PC before the price went dogshit and put on cachy + KDE and can't be happier, not much different than using Windows, and that old system would be upgraded to a better cpu before giving it to my nephew.
