     Dude, you don't know what you are talking about. I have a bunch of 2015/2016 hardware. Runs fine.
     
     Rufus let's you burn windows ISO's to USB to bypass TPM and RAM requirements

     False!
     Windows 11 can run perfectly fine on 2015/2016 era Hardware. Probably older

     False.
     
     Much modern hardware is excluded from Windows 11.
     
     https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/windows-11/how-to-fix-this-pc-doesn-t-meet-the-minimum-requirements-for/m-p/4047590
     
     TPM 2.0 and UEFI are *required*
     
     No waivers.
     
     Linux runs just fine on the same hardware.
     
     Go ahead and tell me why that's aaaaaaxxxxxxxualllly good for me.

     Yeah, that's the other thing. With Windows 11, comply or die with their hardware requirements.
     
     Whereas the latest lubuntu will run on hardware that Microsoft says you have to junk.
     
     My mother-in-law just installed Linux Mint MATE on a very old laptop.
     
     It just works.

     I've been using Linux on the desktop since 1999.
     
     It really, really sucked back then. Compiling kernels so they would actually run on my hardware, living with terrible gaming because all of the video drivers had to be reverse engineered, really crappy substitute programs that got abandoned.
     
     Yep, went through it all.
     
     But as a professional IT person, I saw that Windows was the number one source of spam from bots. A newly installed Windows 7 box that was exposed to the Internet would become a bot server in minutes.
     
     Where as Ubuntu listened on zero ports with the default install.
     
     And now, when I can run Office 365 software in a browser, when Steam has Proton and runs games reliable enough that they are making bank selling a Linux device to run Windows games, when Windows 11 is basically an app for Microsoft to spy on you and sell your data and push their spam at you...
     
     A Linux Mint desktop, on hardware that was thoughtfully chosen, simply works.

     Windows 7 was superior in everyway to Linux. 11 is more of a parallel grade program.

     Spent hours and hours looking into potentially switching over and I can say without a doubt, Linux is simply for people who talk loud to make themselves look smart.

     ...And probably pan handle at the nearest highway exit

     🤷 Why do that to yourself. Windows is out of the box ready

     Use X11, because legacy has greater stability. Chroot jail them. No sudo access. Move all conf, including ssh into etc. Chmod 400.

     There is no way that most of your users would love Linux on the Desktop, even stable linux distros are not really that.....stable. They only way the Linux Desktop is good in the Enterprise or Schools is via ChromeOS because it's locked down and limited to "Just Works" tech.

     @verita84eva @Omega_Variant @The_Almighty_Kek @WilhelmIII @tyler So would I, but assholes in management everywhere I've worked think Windows is da bomb, even when it bombs and fucks up critical functions.
     
     Every time one I'm interested in that might support the idea, they sell out to the jew 'going public' psyop and that inexplicably means squashing technological innovation.

     @verita84eva @Omega_Variant @The_Almighty_Kek @WilhelmIII @tyler I don't need to imagine it. I've been doing that for decades. Still do it today. Loving how easy it is. I have so little to do for them.

     @WilhelmIII @Omega_Variant @The_Almighty_Kek @tyler @verita84eva Been using Linux (started with Slackware -- 14 3.5" floppies (or flippies, as we sometimes called them)) since 1995. Started using the "Mother's Day" release of Red Hat Linux (version 3.0.3) on an Digital Alpha UDB (aka Multia) when I discovered Red Hat before anyone knew who they were. (Dammit. *Just* missed Mother's Day release being a strange synchronicity.)
     
     Yes, it was painful, but I was a system administrator using various company's versions of Unix and actually had an OSF/1 (later Digital Unix) desktop at work. So it was my *job* to get things working. When Linux came along it was just a natural to put it on my company issued laptop.
     
     Never used anything since (except for 4 months I won't talk about). Where I am now, the company supports Windows and Mac. I use Fedora Linux. Linux is 'tolerated' but not supported. I've had my share of small problems going against the grain. But especially lately, I've heard so many gripes from my coworkers about the problems they are having with their company issued desktops or laptops, that I've started to tell them that I don't want to hear any more nonsense from them about "why do you bother using Linux because it's too much work to keep things working with company infrastructure?" Yeah. About that, you sycophants.

     Imagine having to support Desktop Linux for them and deal with all the nonsense that will come with that.......like wayland.

     I needed something stable and reliable and that what I got with this system, and I like the real-time kernel that thing gives good performance for what I do. Debian/Ubuntu have flexible toolchains, so compiling software is a breeze and most git pages have Debian/Ubuntu instructions.
     
     Plus lxqt + openbox are peak UI for me, doesn't get any better.
