Windows 8 was actually pretty decent and had some good improvements under the hood. It handled dual monitor setups waaay better than 7 ever did, I don’t know if people remember how rough the support was for a lot of these modern amenities we now take for granted.
In typical Microsoft fashion, 8’s biggest sin was simply not letting people customize the GUI to their workflows and forcing that damned full screen Start menu. Once they shrunk the tiles to create 10’s Start menu it became my favorite, so of course they trashed it for 11’s generic look. Been using KDE now and it’s near perfect.
It doesn’t matter how much good he does, some people will never forgive Windows 8.
I liked Windows 8 :(

I liked it better than Windows Me
And don’t even get me started on Vista
I thought Ballmer was CEO at that time?
Doesn’t matter, Bill Gates is guilty of every bad thing that Microsoft ever did and I even heard he modelled clippy after Jeffrey Epstein.
With classic shell, Win 8.1 was surprisingly good. Definitely underrated.
