Launching Windows 11 in the midst of a semiconductor shortage was such a dumb move on Microsoft's part, especially when 11 doesn't really offer that much more than 10. The only real 'groundbreaking' new feature (multiple desktops) was something that Linux had fifteen years ago.

Is "multiple desktops" different from virtual desktops? Because i've been using virtual desktops in Windows 10 for a while now.

I can barely keep track of my one desktop what are people doing with multiple desktops?

for work i have to have like 3 PDFs open, my IDE, a browser, etc.

it's nice being able just switch to a clean desktop to browse the internet or write an email without messing up my window placement or getting lost in a bunch of layers.
