Don’t pre-order and don’t buy games that have loot boxes or other in-app purchases.

I’ve had similar experiences with Windows.
Recently the fingerprint reader on my work laptop (which is running Win11) just completely stopped working until after a reboot.
Putting my laptop to “sleep mode” didn’t work either, it would constantly wake up within seconds of me putting it to sleep. Wifi stopped functioning for no discernable reason. (I still haven’t found the reason)
If it’s good enough for mums, it’s good enough for a lot of people. Because mums are the mainstream.
That depends on your definition of “ready”, and of “most people”.
My mom, for instance, could pretty much do all her stuff on a Linux machine, and as soon as her current laptop with Win11 gets a tad too old and she starts complaining that everything is so slow, I’ll switch her over to Linux.
All she does is edit her photos, read emails and does online banking and some web-only games (like boardgamearena). She needs an image editor (she still uses Picasa, so Shotwell could be a valid alternative), an email program (she already uses Thunderbird), text processor (she already uses LibreOffice).

Those Americans need to look in a mirror first, with their “freedom fries”, because France decided not to back them in their needless war in Iraq.
