We are all different and that is what makes this planet interesting. I like Windows 11 as it does what i want how i want, Yes i do use 3rd party stuff as i love to customise, i run 4 SSDs on a Multi Booting System, half Win 10 for both Themes and WBs, and half running Win 11 for Themes Testing, but one Win 11 will be used for WB 11 when it is ready. I can also understand peeps who have an all time favourite Theme or WB as i Ran Stealth Drone WB for years and loved it, now i love Variety so have a large collection of Both WBs and Themes.

For me personally.. The biggest features I use regularly would be snap layouts and the new command bar with explorer tabs over Ribbons. I can not think of a worse explorer menu then ribbons layout and am very thankful to see it gone. Windows 11 command bar is a bit of an acquired taste. In fact I didn't actually like it at first, but the more I use it the more I like it.

The Start menu and taskbar of course are issues on Windows 11.. But not really though, all they are really is excuses to hate on Windows 11. In reality there is start 11, there is startallback, there is explorer patcher which means Windows 11 is very customizable right now. For me I would be using start 11 on either Windows 10 or 11 because it beats both.

Of course a lot of Windows 11 does really come down to UI changes. I think things like "settings", "taskbar", and "system tray menu" all have very welcoming UI changes for the better. Every time I go back to Windows 10 I really feel these changes and want back onto a windows 11 device.

As for as the Mac criticism. I actually passionately dislike Apple products and have been this way for decades now. I still do things like left align my start menu but this is very easy to do so its a non issue. As for the curved edges, I really like them on the OS and I don't care if they are Mac like... They just look good.

As for the criticism that Windows 11 is constantly a unfinished beta. I think this criticism ignores the times we now live in. Covid changed the world and one of the biggest things this outbreak brought on is the advancement of the digital age. Everything is constantly plugged into the internet now and can be done from home. Think of how video games progressed for example. They all started as completed work that got zero updates to things that constantly stay in development and the comments then were video games nowadays are just constant unfinished betas. But in actuality the ability to develop games after release made for a better finished product.... To prove this point there are a few original nintendo games out there that are simply unbeatable because of an unfixable bug. Games could not be updated after they were released of course games do a lot more then bug fixes now, they also improve the actual gameplay and add features. The same logic here is with how Operating systems now function, it was a long time coming.

This of course this is the logic behind someone like myself that would say Windows 11 is for me. As Naroon stated everyone has their own unique taste preferences.

That makes perfect sense.  To a lesser degree I'm in the same situation ie needing to occasionally provide support to users who sooner or later will have Windows 11 and so I need to become reasonably fluent with it.  That's quite different than actually finding something interesting about it though.  The incremental improvements in security could have easily been implemented in Windows 10 - some are and just need to be turned on (if supported) - while the UI changes just serve to annoy and confuse ordinary users who aren't interested in relearning how to use their PCs.  On the upside it's job security for us tech workers lol.
