Am I the only one here crazy enough to use Windows 11 as a daily driver?
Not crazy at all. I'm extremely excited about this new update. So naturally, I've installed it on three of the main computers I use on a daily basis. Below is a list in case anyone is curious:
Surface Book 3
Dell Precision 7730
Dell Alienware R9
I also have installed it in a few VMs that I use regularly vs. just sandbox environments.
So far, my experience has been fairly positive with regards to the stability of Windows 11 and have had very few issues, of which, all were minor issues. I haven't run into anything that has made me want to go back to Windows 10. In fact, I'll probably migrate more and more towards Windows 11 as time goes on. I've really liked the experience so far.
As a caveat, I regularly backup my systems and am very comfortable and ready in the situation I need reinstall Windows if anything goes awry though. Not sure if I'd recommend most people to do this.

I did a clean install of Windows 11 from a homemade ISO that I created. This is the only OS I am running on my laptop. It is my daily and nightly driver.

Just did a clean install using an .iso from uupdump.net. (The upgrade from 10 was a mess.) So far, so good.

On my laptop I did an in place upgrade and since then My system has gotten sluggish. A lot of my favorite application will not install. Running the EXE nothing happens. My input is 3 out of 10 so I'm going back to Ghost Spectre Superlight 21H1. I just created the USB Boot and am running it right now.
Maybe I'll try it again in a year's time.

This the old backup. In case things go south. It'll give me access to everything I need.

That is exactly the way I did it. Fresh install and fresh system. All is working good.
Maybe I'll try it again in a year's time.
