    In terms of longevity. The win 95/98/2000/ME

    I personally like XP but 7 is definitely the best all around. Maybe win12 will go back to being normal and simple again

    I really like windows 10 look… After you remove 90% of the taskbar buttons and stuff

    Windows XP was the peak of human existence.

  5. Vista (in terms of looks) or 7 (in terms of usability)

    I miss 3.1, when Windows was… well a bunch of windows.

  7. MrMitchWeaver

    I will never forgive Microsoft for losing the wavy logo.

    I like the glossy skeuomorphic design that Vista had.

    Windows 7 is the GOAT in almost everything.

    10 or 11(left aligned dark mode) and remove the search bar and all the other bullshit

  11. I’m inclined to say if 11 gets the full functionality of 7, and a dash more frosted glass effect, it’d be hands down the best.

    Otherwise, it’s Vista.

    I really like the new look of Windows 11, after removing useless icons as always

    XP just felt new and modern at the time. Everything else after was just similar.

    Vista all things aside looked pretty sharp

  15. 7. The most beautiful OS. I wish Windows continued to develop on that theme permanently.

  16. I feel like Windows 7 nailed the function, but the graphical design of the icons and stuff has aged out a bit. To that end, I think Windows 10 improved on the function and graphical design of the taskbar, but started down the path of unnecessary bullshit that Windows 11 is now driving people crazy with.

    Tl;dr – Windows 7 for function, Windows 10 for balance of feel and function, Windows 11 for WHY DID YOU MOVE THE TASKBAR TO THE MIDDLE

    I like the Vista taskbar the most, but 10 with all the extra bullshit turned off and hidden is probably the most functional.

    It troubles me I’m not sure about this:

    W98
    WXP
    WVISTA
    W7
    W8
    W10
    W11

    Am I correct?

    Windows XP. Certainly was a Wow factor after using the previous windows. Nothing else really popped like that.

    They shoulda kept that motherfucker labeled START because I am tired of explaining which button is the START menu.

    Really loved the Aero bar from win 7.

    i know we all want minimalism, but windows 7 got me hooked for years.

    and windows 98 themed windows 10 might also be great. if only i could have Chips Adventures and SkiFree built-in on it.

    XP, only for all the feels. Reminds me of my old Dimension 4300.
