It gives you 6 years to transition to a better OS. Or to become CEO of Microslop and improve things.
It's honestly great, even for me who only boot into windows once every few months.
I wouldn't say "great". But great in comparison to 11 😁 But who needs 6 years of transition? The run-of-the-mill-user with office and Firefox could just switch and not even notice it. Despite libreoffice loading much quicker.
Great in the sense I don't have to bother for 6 years for a partition I will use less than 24 hours over that period of time haha.
So far I've used it to scan once (for some reason that day skan decided to not work) and to make a windows install USB for my SO.
I tried Expedition 33 thinking performance issues were a Linux thing by no, it's just like that.
So it's a long term unlikely to be used OS, and for that long support is great.
