I did. Whatever they did in December was the last straw for me.
I did leave dual boot on my desktop "just in case", but haven't actually booted windows since.

 @EricLawton @f4grx @cferdinandi @molly0xfff I have not needed to boot my windows virtual and just removed my second graphics card I used for a gaming Windows 10 virtual with pass through. The AMD RX6800 is great on Debian. I can play all the games I want now without Windows, hopefully Microsoft doesn't have enough incentive to make breaking changes in Windows 11 and Wine / Proton keeps working as great as it is. It'll work at least for a decade from now with the compatibility cycle in mind. |

I went to the trouble to set up dual boot on my linux/windows box as i was trying to phase out windows, but windows hates grub and every time i restart windows, it suspects it's newly installed and makes me enter install codes, which is a pain because you can't go get them and cut & paste them when the OS isn't booted. you really have to type them in. it's so tedious and unusable that I finally had to install virtualbox and build windows inside that instead just so i could occasionally use the one or two apps that i have no equivalent of under linux.
