But tbh I think people really blasted #Windows8 harsher than it deserved to be, looking back. It made perfect sense for #tablets. Just not so for desktop and non-touch laptops. Perhaps if #Microsoft just branded it like "Windows Tablet" instead of marketing it as a successor to Windows 7 people would've been more forgiving and we wouldn't get the mess that is #Windows11 which I still don't understand what it's supposed to be and just seems to be designed out of spite. At least #Windows10 had the purpose of being a subscription-based OS in mind, well until they announced 11 that is...

I know the #fediverse here hates #Windows and MS (and I do too) but I kinda wish their eventual downfall was a little more dignified than this. Where #Linux finally wins desktop out of merit, not because its competitor shitted itself... :sagume_think:
