Pretty sure the drop had more to do with PC price increases from the AI-driven component shortages than the quality of Windows.

Price too high so people building pcs chose to save $130 or whatever the fuck it costs now

Also linux just straight up works better in every conceivable way for my purposes

I don't agree - Windows 11 was already really shit and losing popularity, then high prices may have put off some people who were thinking of upgrading their hardware to run it.
