      *tale as old as time… *

      “XP is ruining windows with their damn duplo looking themes and primary colors. Pry 98 SE from my cold dead hands”

      *true as it can be… *

      “Windows 7 was the last time Microsoft cared, and 8.1 and 10 are regressions in every way. You’ll pry it from my cold dead hands”

      “Windows X9 Delta was the final version when MicroAmazon cared about holographic interfaces. I’ll never use Windows X10 Gamma.”

      I get the hate for change but as a user who really doesn’t like Windows overall* I like the 11 changes. I actually prefer the new context menu (which can be disabled) and UI. Do I hate the useless widgets and ad spam? Yes. But I just don’t use it, instead opting for the weather taskbar info.

      It’s still no macOS but if I’m forced to use it for work then it’s better than 10 in my opinion.

      *DLL Hell, Registry bloat, installation files being thrown god knows where, lack of widespread disk image support, abysmal wake from sleep/hibernation, Microsoft trying to upsell everywhere.
