KWrite hasn't been released by KDE on the Windows app store, Kate has. Using the app store means seamless updates in the background.

Maybe KWrite is available on winget which would make it a bit less inconvenient than manually downloading each update.

Edit: KWrite isn't available on winget

C:\> winget search kwrite

No package found matching input criteria.

Microsoft is in conflict with itself if web apps, modern native apps, or classic native apps are the future. That's why even different Microsoft applications feel as or even more disconnected from each other than using KDE applications under Gnome.

Polish deputy prime minister says otherwise:

By asking Poland to shoot down Russian missiles over Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelensky is attempting to get Warsaw involved in the war, Polish Deputy Prime Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski said in an interview with Radio ZET on Nov. 4. https://kyivindependent.com/zelensky-wants-to-drag-poland-into-war-with-russia-polish-deputy-pm-claims/

It's a choice by the Polish.

Those NATO allies (Poland) don't even intercept Russian missiles when they enter Polish air space. Belarus has a better track record of shooting down Russian drones.

It's still the same as before and nothing on the level USA does for Israel where they happily intercept rockets for that rich, well armed count with an installed iron dome air defense.

Still no US air raids on Donbas and Crimea and such.

Also the market is pretty saturated at this point. People who want a Switch got one years ago.

Backwards compatibility on both Xbox and PlayStation cause problems as well.

By default Steam Deck users are presented with the "Best on Deck" tab in the store which is for verified games only.

Deck allows for tinkering and unverified games but it's not the default experience. As a daily Deck user you should be aware of that.

I'm doing my part

Ah, so all the tests must be wrong then. All the articles must be mistaken.

All? ALL? So finding only one counter example to Win10 running faster tears down your whole argument? You must be very sure of yourself. Let me do 30 seconds of googling.... Oh:

Just that? Then where are the old settings? The old configuration screen? It’s gone now in win11.

No idea what you're talking about. Also: WSL2 is more important.

I only had ads for win11 and office365 on win10. That’s it.

Then you forgot about the all ads for which there are guides on how to disable them. For example https://windowsreport.com/remove-ads-windows-10-creators-update/

Win10 runs faster and more stable then win11.

Bogus. They are the same in that regard. Stability is mostly dependent on used hardware and drivers these days.

Don’t get me started on all the limitations win11 introduced

Please do get started and how they weigh more than than WSL2.

next to all the ads

Win10 also has ads, MS added more ads through updates. My work desktop PC runs Win10, my work notebook runs Win11. I have the comparison on a daily basis.

and loss of control of settings.

A few minor things around taskbar placement. Even though my personal preference is a vertical taskbar on the left screen edge, it's less important than WSL2.

[–] woelkchen@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago (5 children)

You’re joking right?!? 😂

No, why would I? I nowhere said that Win11 is the best OS, btw, but from the perspective of a Linux user, Win11's WSL2 is a massive improvement over WSL 1.0 in Win10.

If you're looking for a Win10 fanboy, maybe look in a different community, not a Linux one.

The "year of the Linux desktop" was ages ago when Intel started developing drivers upstream in Linux, Mesa, and Xorg. This lead do AMD and others doing the same. None of the current developments, including Steam Deck, would have happened without that.
