Excerpts. Part of a series. As for Linux proponents - which I am sure this article will elicit comments from, for me, it takes less time and effort to restore functions Windows removed (such as Quick Launch bars, and multi-level taskbars, grouping by I.D., compact start menu etc.) and enhance it for efficiency and appearance to my preferences than it would to conform a Linux distro to be as good, if possible.

My favorite so far is PCLinuxOS KDE Plasma, though I do not intend to use proprietary multimedia codecs (murky legal issue).

Will keep my old Windows PC because reasons, and the wife has a Win11 machine, so I’ve still got a fallback.

I will continue using win10 simply because win11 does not have a driver for my portable printer, and I am loathe to buy a new one when this one works perfectly well.
