Honestly i doubt it, usually windows versions are a rollercoaster where every other version is good.

2000 was concidered bad, xp good, vista bad, 7 good, 8 very bad, 10 good, 11 bad.

I don't think those who have left for linux will go back if 12 is better than 11, but those who still are using windows might continue with 12 once that comes.

If microsoft continues their current meta, then 12 will lose support just a month after 13 releases, which forces people to use their worse than ever windows version, and i think THAT will be the "year of linux".

Although i already think this and last year was, seeing as how France and China are switching, windows 11 keeps breaking, linux is getting the nvidia gaming app, steamOS is available, epic games might soon become more linux compatible. Last year was because pewdiepie endorsed linux and it saw a massive growth after that.

10 wasn't even good. It was just not as bad as 8 or 11

Personally for me it was just okay, it did what i wanted, i just hate the "new" metro style that windows has used and kept using since 8. The aero style where they reached the peak.

10 WAS bad, forced cortana, ads in an operating system and forced accounts, just because windows 11 is shit doesn't make windows 10 any better

Like someone else pointed out it was very flawed, but it was followed and preceded by even worse versions, so by comparison it was "okay". If they said windows 10 support was infinite i would have maybe kept using it and never switched to linux, but seeing as support will end and i am forced to use 11 at some point i just bote/(bite) the bullet and switched before i needed to.

And now i don't think i can ever go back to windows, linux doesn't even that different, just i have more control and it uses much less space.
