Nobody even thinks about Windows 11, they just use it if it comes preinstalled. And from the data we have, the people that don't like Windows 11 are more likely to be on Windows 10 (or Mac OS).
There is no mass exodus to Linux. No data point we have shows that. The biggest Linux uptick we've seen recently is related to Steam Deck, which is as much Linux as Android or ChromeOS are.
Desktop Linux is better than it was, and it will be closer to its competitors if people ever agree that one consolidated system to support features that have been standard for years is the way to go... but it's not a mainstream option. Yes, even against Windows 11.
