The Good:
- UI effects are better - rounded corners, background blur on context menus, etc.
- Icon set is cleaner - crisper and more appealing, with a pop
- New task view is great - helpful for managing a bunch of processes
The Weird:
- Everything is centered - including taskbar icons and the lockscreen clock, doesn't fit some wallpapers
- Start menu has been modified - 11's start menu gets rid of some of the quirks of 10, but brings its own as well
- Reminds me of Ubuntu's newer UI - might have been 10 years ago, but Ubuntu had modernized their UI
The Bad:
- They force you to use a Microsoft account initially - swapping to a local account takes some poking around, creepy
- Settings and menus have been moved/rearranged - certain menus and settings have been removed or relocated, awkward
- TPM 2.0 must be enabled for installation - if your motherboard/BIOS is non-compliant it's unsupported, annoying
microsoft is going to force us to use it anyways and the performance of it is questionable at best, so ill stick with windows 10 for now
