I've since moved on to Win11 but sometimes I still miss XP. RIP.

This, Vista (with appropriate hardware) and 7 were the last good ones
Would be cool if someone could leverage the source code leak to patch it up and get it using modern TLS ciphers and harden the kernel and OS, but doubt that will ever happen, too much work.
I got weird looks when I said I enjoyed 8, but never have I ever heard anyone say they thought Vista was good. I am pretty lenient and I remember testing Vista with a dozen or so pc's in our company and basically all of them had issues and blue screens. To unstable, so we skipped it. It was basically as bad as ME to me.
7 was great, but vista was a cancer. They gradually fixed it with 8, 10, 11
8 wasn't good, but it wasn't the worst. Then 10 is another great windows, but 11 just feels like 10 with a smoother interface+copying Apple
