With Steam and most importantly CCP Games (Icelandic developers of EVE Online) ending support for win7/8, it appears I have a choice of win10 or 11.

From what experience I have with windows 10 (work PCs and a laptop), I really dont like that OS.

So I'm curious about 11.. is it worse?

I'm not really considering linux an option, because developers obviously cater to the overwhelming market share for windows. Linux and MacOS are afterthoughts, and you have to keep in mind that some software won't run on the platforms.

Well if you game all the time then I would go with Win 10. That way you can disable the TPM chip in the BIOS. That won't keep the govt out of the intel backdoors but your passwords and certs won't be saved onto hardware to make it easier for them. I still use 10 and yeah it's fucking trash but I won't go 11 until I get forced to.

The OTHER option can be a Mac and you can run Win 10 in Vmware Pro or Virtualbox. But I don't know about game performance.
