Microsoft could force users to have a BLM FUCK WHITEY wallpaper and winfags will still say "bu-bu-but I rarely look at my desktop anyways!". It's so bizarre to me.

I'm actually pleasantly surprised at how untranny the jannies are being in this case. Seems more to be a response to people trying to shit on OP than the other way, plus they're summing up the solution in that comment.Tranny-jannies gonna tranny-janny.
It's a bizarro world case where the jannies are trying to be as un-redditor-like as possible for a change.

My laptop's HDD died a month ago and I installed Linux instead of Windows after I got an SSD. Best decision I've made this year.

Now that I think about it, opening your start menu by dragging your cursor all the way to the bottom left corner pixel and clicking it was genius in a way. It's much faster to pull off, and if you have dual monitors, there is a bit of padding by default that disallows you from moving your cursor to the second monitor when placing it in a corner.
Granted, the fullscreen tile start menu was pretty awful from a desktop user's standpoint, but the way you invoked it should've been kept in 10 and 11 for invoking the more conventional start menu. Not that I'd care since keyboard launchers are superior for power users.

Windows always breaks in new and interesting ways, I guess layering on two decades of code written by pajeet call center developers wasn't the best choice for stability. Can any microsoft people tell me why they don't trash NT and start over?

Because starting all over would break more than layering on two decades of code. Pretty much all Windows software relies on it being this to decade mess, and that's probably why software like AutoHotkey has a right to exist. In a way it being such a clusterfuck is a blessing in disguise.

I'm sorry, where is this pride flag supposed to be? I don't see anything that looks like it or the buttons that were shown with it

I know it's a cliche, elitist, asshole thing to say, but you should seriously consider moving to Linux if you're still using Windows 11. Manjaro Linux or Linux Mint are really great distros to start with, and they'll get you on the right track and set up in less than an hour.
It sucks to see that this is the turn Microsoft has taken, but when they have the majority of the market share, they get away with almost anything. It's primarily because there's no real alternative to Windows, other than the MacOS which has its own problems entirely.
Leaving Windows isn't going to magically make Microsoft revert their choices, but I guarantee you'll be happier knowing that your system isn't based on decades of soulless choices and shitty marketing failures, spyware, trans flags and everything in between. Good luck.
Bonus: install Gentoo or Arch from scratch, or do LFS and make your own distro.

Because the whole point of switching to NT kernel for the consumer editions of Windows (ever since Windows XP) was for stability as NT kernel was far superior to the ancient DOS based kernel used for previous Windows 9x (including ME) which was a hackjob at best.
Interestingly, the NT kernel used in Windows XP (NT 5.1) was just an improved kernel from the Windows 2000 (NT 5.0), the kernel of Windows Server 2003 (NT 5.2) however, while being very similar to the XP's in terms of functionality, was in fact completely rewritten from scratch, which also includes new APIs and function calls which aren't present at all in NT 5.1. NT 5.2 was the only time the NT kernel got a drastic change in its source code and the future generations of NT used in later versions of Windows after Server 2003 (and XP) were "merely" just an improved version of NT 5.2. NT 5.2 was also used for obscure versions of Windows XP such as the IA-64 (Itanium) and x64 edition.
That's why ReactOS developers specifically targeted for Windows Server 2003 for compatibility as NT 5.2 is generally regarded as the pinnacle of NT kernel design and other reasons I talked above.

TBH if the only current year OS choices I had were Windows 11 and Linux, I'd say "fuck it" and go back to CP/M instead.

Yeah, I'm wondering myself. Is this a US-only thing, a phased rollout, or did they change their minds about it?

Linux isn't based on that yet. All of the internals aside from the solid as ever kernel are slowly being handed over to the current-year infected retards that would put the same Pride logo into your programs without marketing telling them to do so. The corporate side of Linux, i.e. IBM/Red Hat and GNOME, consider the soulless choices you mention to be good, actually. With an added pinch of smartphone generation bullshit added for good measure, see gesture workflows on GNOME and their UI design recommendations.
Unless you want to expand the pool of Linux alogs, just encourage the same tinkering on a user's existing Windows system. Debloater scripts, Powershell usage, registry hacks, etc. If they are up for it, this is a good sign and they might eventually migrate. After all, no matter how user friendly a Linux distro is, at some point you will have to use the terminal or interact with the system's internals. If they aren't, them switching OS is bad for everybody.

As long as BRAVE and TOR browser keep working on Win7 I zero reason to ever change.
Linux is more troon infested then Microsoft. I don't know why people make it out to be somehow better.
