    They could convince me to update by making windows 11 not suck.

          You could probably install linux bare metal on your computer, and daily drive windows 7 in a vm. Good luck getting compatible software anymore, but if you can, create an image and you are set for the foreseeable future

            Actually not a bad idea. A lot of games I play actually run better on 7 than on 10.

            Or I could reskin mint to be Windows Aero
