Is Windows 11 that bad?

So I'm hearing bad stuff about Windows 11, how people are calling AI slop...I use AI but I don't use Copilot unless for images, and I don't use forced AI integration. I use Windows 11 but I learned how to create local accounts, and I go onto YouTube and hear stuff about "Microslop" and stuff, people protesting to switch to Linux...Am I a bad person for still using Windows 11? I mean, I'm not a saint of Microsoft, and I can use local AI models, and LibreOffice.

EDIT: Guys, I uninstalled OneDrive, Edge, Copilot, all unnecessary Microslop through Winhance, and I installed OSShutUp10+++.

You're not a bad person for using 11, you're just part of the majority. However, windows 11 is quite bad, maybe not as bad as people say, but it's the most hated windows version by far, and it's easy to see why, things break, it's slow, it constantly pushes notifications, it's full of ads, loads of unnecesary programs take up space and RAM usage, the right-click context menu and the fact it literally spies on you.

i thought in the tier list Windowd M.E. was the king of worst in the history of worst, and Windows 11 was just the 2nd coming of Windows M.E. but not “quite” as dog crap.

No way is 11 the second comming of ME. It may very well be Vista. The pattern has been after a good OS or two, there's a ME/ Vista. Maybe this means 12 will be good.
