Just go for it. It's not significantly different. We've pushed it to hundreds of PCs at work with very, very few issues. And most of those were resolved just by rolling back and trying again.

I also didn't have any (major) issues except for gaming, wanted to know if that is better now
if you're set on windows, I would advise on 24H2 for the technical improvements to areas like multiplane overlay and hardware accelerated graphics scheduling. There have been recent issues with the latter (specific to hardware flip queue on applicable hardware) but have been eliminated with the most recent cumulative updates.
The context menu is ever so slightly improved with actual text labels for cut, copy, paste etc, though these are tiny and would still fail accessibility requirements. General shell experience is still way worse than Win10 in terms of responsiveness.
I see, how about gaming performance? I might give a try from what you told me but any stuttering would just mean wiping clean for 23h2 tbh
between the two, maybe margin of error in favour of 24h2?
Can you tell us the contexts in which you encountered stuttering? Was it just gameplay on its own? Did it involve video playback simultaneously? Maybe streaming gameplay or something like that?
I do always have a twitch tab open but I don't stream myself
I see, that could be relevant to the areas above. The Chromium project has at least one high-impact open issue pertaining to Windows multiplane overlay implementation.
Am I right in presuming you used a chromium derived browser?
Was using Vivaldi, so chromium. Can that multiplane overlay be disabled?
you can disable it via windows registry but it's not a method I like to recommend, given that it's a beneficial technology.
If it causes stutters than it isn't beneficial to me though
true, that specific issue lies with chromium, though.
After several hours of struggling with a ton of stuff, I played MH Wilds with 24H2 and it ran fine? Game's performance sucks but this isnt any better or worse than 23H2, a win I guess?
I'm glad to hear. I gather wilds was recently updated (within the last two or so months) to address much of the performance woes? I'm sorry to hear that hasn't really materialised.
I recently sent a copy to a friend with a modest setup hoping it would now run fine on their hardware :/
Its a little better, for me at least, but for a lot of people it actually got worse /shrug
MH World took years to run reasonably well on PC so I'm keeping my hopes up.
will keep an eye on its activity. Suppose it is a fairly recent entry in the series so there's a decent chance it will continue to improve, as you've mentioned.
I assume it will, like Worlds. Should be good 6 months after the expansion comes
