Gaming computer, I dropped Win11 because with PiHole blocking windows analytics, the whole OS slows down. Just opening the start menu took ~4 seconds with Ryzen 5950x on an m2 ssd with 64GB of RAM. Everything was sluggish.
I work with some servers on an air-gapped network, when you first click the start menu after a reboot it can take a couple of minutes to let you do anything.

That’s extremely unoptimized by Microsoft just trying to phone home, holy hell!
Again, I would suggest using Windows 10 for those. Unless I am mistaked and 10 too begins crying if it can’t see mommy Microsoft.

Nah, 10 was fine for the most part. But it already has an announced EoL.
