The AI says how Msft updates Windows has changed - and apparently for the worse. Instead of pushing out 2 or 3 well tested updates per year, now every little developer fiefdom does their little part - literally hundreds of little component developers pushing out an update/install request on their discreet area of software.
I’d update Win and the very next day it’s telling me I need to update again, which is disruptive and, as said, apparently increases the chances for update compatibility issues.
I would point out that the many versions of AI have widely varying "personalities" which often contradict one another.
I converted all of my old Windows 10 Pro machines to Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC to keep getting security updates until 2032. This OS gets the security updates that actually are important, but gets none of the BS nonsense updates... so none of my older machines have been having this type of problem.
And as much as I am disgusted by so much of Microsoft's recent idiocy... I have not experienced any serious issues with Windows 11 Pro. But the primary reason that I update nearly all of my Windows machines licenses to pro is because it gives one options using the included Group Policy Editor to avoid a lot of this type of nonsense. (I would note that I have always used 3rd party providers and not Microsoft itself to upgrade to Pro.)
The other thing that I do is use the popular Powershell scripts on new installations to strip out the bloat, adware, and much of the other lunacy that Microsoft tries to shove down our throats...

So, because of these precautions, I have to admit that I have not had as many negative experiences as others. But I would note that as a computer hobbyist, I use mostly Linux with computers setup as servers and on my remote VMs such as my Hostinger Virtual Private Server, Google Cloud Platform Servers, and others.
Windows has its uses, Linux has its uses, and Apple has its uses (but usually at a premium price point).
