    Same. Switched my personal machine to Mint instead of “upgrading” to 11. I have to use 11 for my work device, and it’s not hyperbole to say that it gets worse every single week.

      Yeah… my machine got so slow and with every update breaking something new I had to “downgrade” to win10 (I’m aiming for linux, but no luck :( so far, at least). Now everything magically works again
