    When did it not suck exactly?

    Maybe win 2000?

    XP was the start of the enshitification, I knew I couldn’t stay on windows with that release.

    Although after Bill (how can this sell more windows) left and they were very open about being a DATA collection company first, a computer service company second, I thought they might simply offer windows for free.

    With all this shit in it of course because that is how you satisfy data collection.

    But I guess they figured why kill the revenue stream of windows itself.

      Windows 7 was legitimately decent. I think it was also the automated upgrade to Windows 8 that was my red line and got me to successfully switch to Linux.
