You can bypass the TPM 2.0 requirements by pulling in your Windows 11 ISO into Rufus and then selecting to remove the TPM requirement in the prompt.
Drawback is when updating to new major releases of win11 (so I've heard) that you have to edit the registry.
Just going Linux is way cleaner.
You have the ability to do anything with your system. That includes breaking it. That's the cost of freedom.
The issue is not with Linux not being easy to use. The issue is politics.
Most of the people use their PC for browsing. Throw Linux Mint or Ubuntu on the machine (that's the hard part for casual users), press firmware install if your wifi is not working (connect Ethernet cable), press update prompt. That's it.
You press on Firefox, you are on the Internet. THATS IT.
I installed Mint on many old laptops. If you have problems, it's because you are tinkering around with your system. That's on you. Many casual users only use their browser.
I installed Mint and Ubuntu on many laptops. Elderly people I installed them for, never had any problems, even after me explicitly asking if they had any problems. Press power on, press Firefox, press power off.
Airvpn was so slow for me. Did anyone else had that problem? Couldn't get 1Gbit down. With Mullvad it was no problem.
