I “upgraded” to 11 because of auto HDR, which does work quite well. I’m suspicious of this, however, and I’m sure that auto HDR should work just fine on 10, but they made it exclusive to 11. I knew I was being manipulated into switching but I was having lots of problems getting HDR to work on my machine.
I can’t think of a single “feature” that Windows 11 brings that couldn’t easily be backported. I remember when 10 was new, there were actually major changes to the way certain things worked for the better and those were at least there to balance out any negatives.
With 11, all they did was add a fresh can of paint and bombard a series of garbage AI updates. AI features literally written by AI. I don’t know anyone who has a mentioned a single nice-to-have that wasn’t already in 10.

Remember when DirectX 10 was exclusive to Windows Vista?
