Is elementary OS 8.1 the Linux alternative Windows 11 users have been waiting for?

@evan @nerds.xyz LOL, I was just about to answer 'No'. And Windows 11 users arent waiting for a linux OS to begin with. Much less this one.
@rspfau @nerds.xyz yeah it's kind of a nutso idea. Like, I'm a Windows 11 user and I'm waiting for a compositing window manager on Wayland with 3d acceleration before I make the switch. Also, a KDE media player that supports MP4 and an IntelliJ IDEA with plugins integrated with the OS package manager. I read the Linux press every day hoping that a distro will finally meet my random collection of needs so I can finally switch which I desperately want to do.
