  • I dunno, obviously I wouldn’t judge my partner for it, it’s not their fault, BUT it would be a big problem for me at least initially, I need silence to sleep, and the slightest noise (that gets through my earplugs - snoring directly next to me would do it) would make sleeping very difficult.

    I’ve already experienced it when someone slept over after a date (who turned out to be an extremely loud snorer) and oh boy, it was a night of torture, almost no sleep at all 😂
















  • I’m sure Linux is great with headphones too, but is there really a widespread issue with them in Windows?

    Obviously it’s not difficult to “recognise” a headset plugged into the 3.5mm jack, so I’m presuming the author means Bluetooth.

    In general, I’ve been very impressed with the improved audio system and controls between Win10 & 11, it needed a big upgrade and we got it. Similarly, Bluetooth UI and ease of use has shot up too. The old Bluetooth UI was awful.

    I use various Bluetooth audio devices daily, as well as 3.5mm audio stuff, and have various needs for routing and altering audio with virtual audio cables, etc, and it all works flawlessly for me.

    I’m just one person though, not really a great sample size!

    Anyway, I’m surprised to hear there’s a widespread issue with Bluetooth audio in Windows 11, given how standardised and widely used everything is these days. You’d think that’d be ironed out reasonably quickly, lest hundreds of millions of people struggle :-(
