Windows 11
A desktop operating system released by Microsoft, introducing the Fluent Design System, a centered taskbar, rounded window corners, and built-in WSL2 support for Linux subsystems. It has drawn criticism from the technical community for telemetry data collection and the inclusion of advertisements within the interface.

tiny11builder is an application built on C# and WinUI, used to generate Windows 11 installation images that are smaller in size and have more controllable components.
In recent years, controversies in the Windows ecosystem have centered on the mandatory binding of Microsoft accounts during the installation stage, Windows 11's hard requirements for TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot, and the increase in built-in ads and recommended content in the system.
Because the naming and dependency relationships of component packages change across different Windows 11 versions, the removal list in the tiny11builder script needs to be updated with each version, which is also the main source of compatibility issues.
Janas is used on Linux x86-64 (Ubuntu 22.04, Debian 12 and above) by downloading the tar.gz package, extracting it and running ./janas-chat; Windows 10 (1903+) and 11 have a zip version, and the author reports write speeds on Windows 11 on par with Linux.
Microsoft Recall is a system-level feature in Windows 11 that periodically takes screenshots and builds a local index, allowing users to search past activity in natural language.
Both macOS's frosted glass effect (vibrancy) and Windows 11's Mica material design language can trace their origins to Aero Glass.
Microsoft's official minimum RAM requirement for Windows 11 is 4GB, with 16GB recommended.
Users can type commands in the taskbar to directly switch to dark mode, enable Do Not Disturb, or adjust volume.
The taskbar direct messaging feature very likely depends on the Phone Link ecosystem, requiring users to complete phone-to-PC pairing in advance.
Users can send text messages directly from the taskbar without picking up their phone or unlocking their screen.
