There isn’t an universe where 8 was better than 10.
8 was INCREDIBLY fast
It also used little resources and it was the last time Microsoft pulled a massive dev effort to modernize almost everything in Windows, significantly evolving it’s display and rendering pipeline and making a whole different design language
8 touch interface was also by far the best touch interface I’ve used
They also forced the touch-like interface onto computers that didn’t have a touch screen.
Why is Linux on there? What sense does it make to compare a kernel with an entire system?
Android is Linux. Raspberry OS is Linux. Caldera Open Linux is Linux. Ubuntu is Linux. Debian is Linux. etc.
My experience: Linux is really good on mobile devices (Android). It is really good for affordable hobby projects (RaspberryOS). There are hardly any alternatives on servers and super computers. On my Laptop and my Desktop PC I prefer Windows. Macs are too expensive and Linux tends to be shit there whenever your hardware is brand new and that’s exactly when you want to install the OS.
