I doubt that will be true anymore. 12 will probably have even more spyware and ads than 11.
12 will very likely just be 11. They don't do OS development like they used to. Windows is essentially now an OS that gets DLC every 6 months.
I really ought to switch my main pc to Linux.
Do it today.
I switched to Bazzite on my main PC at the start of September and it's been great. I only use Windows for steam link vr streaming
11 made me make that switch. My main gaming / media machine is still on W10 and will be until it dies. Then I'll finally invest in figuring out gaming on Linux.
But for day to day browsing and development. Ubuntu has been excellent and is much more snappy than windows. I also picked up a cheap ancient MacBook pro for interviews and it's a solid machine as well.
No regrets so far.
Fedora on kde is nice.
