Ok so i wanted to download windows 11 on my device, so i tried to join the windows insider program but it didnt work because i dont have tpm 2.0. What should i do to get windows 11?
 
Solution
The final ISO of WIn 11 will let you install it on any PC that has

tpm 1.2 enabled
64gb of storage
4gb ram
Any Dual core CPU

So wait...

Insiders latest is dev build users now have to have TPM 2.0 to continue on Dev channel, all non conforming users getting email advising them to roll back to 10. Dev channel build is now not the same as the Release build, unlike the Beta channel one which is closer to what will be released, and you need tpm 2.0 to run it.
So current ISO not ideal but future ones might be better.
that is a copy of the beta build on insiders, as far as I know it doesn't have any restrictions on it yet but the TPM restrictions and all that will likely be added before release. So it might work now but if this is your only PC, I wouldn't install it
 
Even if you manage to get the Insider Build installed and running on non-conforming machine, that doesn't mean it won't break itself when the final version is released and it tries to update to it. This happens often in the Hackintosh world, when Apple releases an update. It tries to install, and it either fails outright, or else it does install, but you end up with non-functional parts like wi-fi cards or other things, because the update doesn't like them for some reason, and you have to roll up your sleeves and try to figure out how to get everything working again that got broken in the update. You could be setting yourself up for much sadness in the future.

I would love that MS leave this crap of cpu list out of win11. I have an old pc, but still capable of handling win 11 for sure. And as i don't need nothing more powerfull, why would I need to buy another pc just for win 11? If MS continues with this I'll keep win 10 to 2025.

And there is NO need for you to go to Win 11, until you have an already compatible PC.

As you said, Win 10 is still supported until 2025. There is no magical reason for WIn 11 right now.

Yes I know. But I would like to test it in my pc without update limitations. Well we will see what is gonna happen in a near future. I would not install win 11 right now even if I could.
