Today, lovely Windows 11 installed an update. And since then I don't have internet access because Microslop Wincrap 11 can somehow magically no longer connect to the DNS server - to any DNS server. No other device in my network has the same issue. I've been bugfixing for over an hour and haven't found a solution. setting the DNS manually, resetting the network adapter, flushed all DNS entries (I used the commandline tool on Windows!). nothing works.

I don't have ANY more patience with W11!

I already tried Linux. I'm using Ubuntu Server for hosting Nextcloud and Fedora just to play around.

Do you prefer Fedora or Ubuntu? I have an old Thinkpad...

(And no, I will not go down the rabbit hole of Arch ;-) At least not for now.)

Fedora is great but I did hit some really annoying snags a couple of times. Ubuntu is easiest and generally is most supported. I don't like snaps and some other Ubuntu things so I go Ubuntu-based instead, with pop os. I really like it.
