Windows 11 First Impressions

✴️ I installed Windows 11 on the day of its initial availability, and share some of my impressions.

Windows 11
Windows 11 is prettier, with some cleaner, updated user interface elements, and includes major changes to the taskbar and start menu. It also expands on a couple of features added to Windows 10 previously. At this point, however, unless you’re really eager to try it, there’s no compelling reason to upgrade to Windows 11.
