Windows 11

More context

The Windows 11 chatter is mostly practical and user-experience focused: people discuss security defaults (Memory Integrity) and share setups or retro/running Windows on unusual hardware. There’s also broader “what’s next” curiosity around future Windows versions (e.g., Windows 12) and compatibility/ISO sizing questions for Windows 10/11 workflows.
