There's a difference between advocating for Linux in its own threads or where especially relevant (no problem!) and every Windows question getting answered with just "use Linux instead!" (aggravating and unhelpful).
I've certainly seen worse than this thread in this regard, however.
Its not a linux issue. If you go into linux threads there's plenty of people advocating for windows.
Even through the question is asking about windows 10 vs 11 it still makes sense to suggest alternatives.
Honestly, I completely agree with the sentiment, although in this particular case OP just asked "upgrade to 11 or Linux?" While indicating that they already have some degree of comfort with Linux after having it on a laptop, so the Linux advocates in this thread have a bit of a leg to stand on in this case.
However: when there are questions like "how do I do X in Y software on Z operating system" it's completely valid to be frustrated with the evangelists who come out of the woodwork and say "just use this other OS" because it completely misses the point of the question.
And that goes for Windows, Mac, and Linux evangelists.
