Old and busted: accidentally install malware on Windows.
New hotness: now Windows itself is malware!
Windows has been malware since ~~the vista days~~ it came out because of the DRM
Unpopular opinion: Windows peaked with Vista.
Vista had its troubles, but that was mostly due to drivers, which aren’t 100% on Microsoft. There was also performance issues, but I think some of that was due to underpowered hardware…
Once the Service Packs came out and the drivers matured, vista was stable, easy to use, and introduced a bunch of good features.
Everything past vista has been stupid and non sensical. They constantly change things, then have to roll back.
I have to use windows 11 at work, it’s terrible with weird bugs and performance issues. The funniest thing is my work issued me a high powered surface branded laptop.
Microsoft can’t even blame the issues on any other vendor, it’s a 1st party device, windows should be the best on surface devices. Especially given they have been making them for years and years
Windows 7 was up-to-date Vista with a new start menu and a different name and people absolutely loved it from the start.
Peaked with xp imo
