Microslop is going to spend 2026 improving Windows 11. It comes after Windows update quality issues and complaints about the operating system.

It seems like we’re at a real turning point for Linux adoption. I’m an Apple nerd, but I love seeing people switch to Linux and write about what a (mostly) positive experience it is. Cheers to my fellow nerds getting off the screaming pile of garbage MS if forcing on people who just want a computer that works.

    After a win11 forced updated made my nontech 75 years old father laptop nearly useless he ask me if linux could give it a second life i’ve been a user for at least 15 years so i was more than happy to install it

    His laptop is like a new one sure he had to learn a little after so long on windows but it’s mostly really user friendly now except for some minor problem everything work out of the box (wifi,bluetooth,printer etc)

    I doubt microslop could ever get most new linux user back once they get the hang of it
