Pretty sure the drop had more to do with PC price increases from the AI-driven component shortages than the quality of Windows.

Hardware prices are particularily problematic for Window users who need to buy a new computer because Windows 11 is not compatible with their not-so-old computers.

I don't agree - Windows 11 was already really shit and losing popularity, then high prices may have put off some people who were thinking of upgrading their hardware to run it.
