> The dip in usage comes just as Microsoft has been forcing full-screen ads onto the machines of customers running Windows 10 to encourage them to upgrade.

How could that have backfired?! Everyone loves ads!

Well yeah. Windows 10 runs on almost anything x86-64 made in the last 15 years. It's also the last Windows version to be available in 32 bit.

Windows 11 is essentially the same OS but with some arbitrary hardware requirements added.

And a slightly worse UI. And ads.

Good. There is no benefit to using 11 instead of 10.
