I began using Brave ~ 1 year ago - best browser I ever used.

Yesterday I “upgraded” to Win11 - and my apps incl Brave run noticeably faster. Color me shocked.

Bottom line, Win11/Brave works great together.

I used MS's app to see if my Win 10 'puter is worthy of upgrading to Win 11 and they said no, I need to do this and this and this, sheesh, my computer is only 2 years old.

Is it worth the upgrade?

I just bought a new laptop which came with W11 (no choice), and I tried it but the new UI just sucks. At least WX plays nice with Open Shell to let you have a decent desktop. It will install on W11, but no Quick Launch bar by default, and if you do the workaround, it does work, but on every boot W11 screws the placement up and puts itself to the left of the QL bar so you have to fix it. Again. Every boot. And a bunch of other stupid stuff. Off it came and on went WX Enterprise. WX installed just fine but couldn’t get the M.2 Intel Killer Wifi card to work, even with the WX drivers. Weird. After a couple hours gave up and installed a USB Wifi adapter, WX automatically recognizes and installs, and guess what — Now all of a sudden the Intel adapter is discoverable!! [shrug]
