I literally can't install it even if I wanted to. If they removed that requirement the rollout would be the same as any other update.

I wasn't able to when it launched, because my CPU was too old (Ryzen 1700). I have since upgraded to a Ryzen 5600X, which I think works, but I honestly don't think I'll bother checking. I'm on Linux 100% except for the one or two times a year that I boot Windows to check on something. Linux doesn't have silly requirements, I just get more features if the hardware exists.
