Comment on Ask HN: How many of you are fighting with Win11

Comments

Win11 seems to work pretty well for me, although I use a lot of 3rd-party alternatives:

- Directory Opus instead of explorer

- Git Bash instead of PowerShell

- Rarely need/use items from two layer context menus

---

I think the biggest pain points are:

- occasionally restarts to install an update (automatically)

- DPI gets weird (laptop screen + monitor at different scales)

edit:

Oh, I forgot: T480s used to occasionally suddenly and unexpectedly start beeping loudly and shutdown. After I figured out why it was doing this (it thought the battery was critically low even though it was plugged in with over 80% charge), I changed some Windows setting so there would be a longer delay before it panicked.
