I considered it before I switched from 7 to 10, but since 10 still makes it possible to create an offline account and disable most of the spyware and other bloat, I opted to stay with Windows for another generation of OS. 11 is different though, it's several steps too far into proprietary hell.
I think the same, Win10 is still "domesticable", because of this it will be the last Win I'll use, maybe in Octubre 2025 in dual boot with Linux, for local use. Win 11 is already beginning to take over the user's PC as its own and Win 12 probably only admitting apps from the MS Store, naturally most proprietary paid apps or free with ads or hidden costs (Free*)
