I meant people with “old hardware” that do not meet Windows 11 requirements, should start thinking moving to Linux.

    This might be a bad take but I personally think Windows 11 is not that bad. If you are going to have some Windows boxes kicking around you should run Windows 11.

      Last time i bought an nvme with windows 11 installed. The seller apparently sells pulled out unit. Usually i just wiped it clean and installed a new os.

      But, since it came with win11. I thought to myself, i want to see whats new. Fuck me, cant even skip the login requirement. I remember there’s a cmd line i can type to skip. Nope, apparently ms patched it. Fuckers.

      Tried another guide. I forgot which one is which but that did it. Forcing user to use ms account. Not in a million years. Miss me with that shit.

        It may depend on when you purchased, but my win11 pro USB I purchased still has the ability to skip the MS account creation with OOBE /bypassnro.

        I think they made the timing you had to run this and reboot trickier though because too soon into the setup or too late and it will not work.

        You also have to straight up yank the Ethernet cable at some point.
