Get the insulated with the gas inside. It’ll save you money on electricity in the long run.

I've been using Windows 11 for a few weeks now. It's okay. The only reason I got it was so I could run 6 Ghz wifi. (Which I ended up not really using anyway.)
I'm sure there are more under the hood changes that I'm not aware of, but it seems to be a slight evolution of Windows 10. No doubt it is tracking my web habits even more and trying to sell my data for better algorigthms.

It's just meh, thus far,
I upgraded my work laptop, AMD Ryzen 9 5900x, AMD 6800M and immediately had issues. My overall performance dropped by 15-20% and my battery life dropped from 5 hours to 1.5 hours.
I expected Windows 11 to be an update that fixed Win10's UX and design inconsistencies but in reality it was just a small theme applied over Win10 and still retains the same inconsistency as the previous version like the control panel still be used for uninstall, Explorer doesn't support tabs and only has visually changed the top, and many native Windows Win32 apps haven't gained dark mode support let alone Fluent Design.
For me the big change was the Windows Subsystem for Android and the new Microsoft Store. To be honest, many changes have slowed my productivity like the lack of drag files to the taskbar icons and the new Explorer context menu which is extremely limited since the programs I use don't support it yet.

That should have been patched out... maybe three weeks or so ago? Something like that. If you're still seeing issues, you might need a clean install.
Anyway, to OP, there have been some minor things to get used to, but I haven't had any "problems". If you're a techy and want to stay on the cutting edge, feel free to upgrade. But I seriously doubt you're going to see any marked difference in your day to day usage, either good or bad.

Have had it for about a month now. No real complaints. It's kinda like getting used to a new iOS really.
