I'm grateful for Microsoft because I taught myself at 7 years old, how to use a computer with Windows 3.1 on it then Win 95 and beyond, but the whole time I've been using Windows, I always felt like it was missing something or something doesn't fit here or there.
When I was servicing computers with Windows on them, I saw a lot of issues that came with Windows as most of the issues were software issues (70% while hardware was the other issue) but what pisses me off is the annoying Windows Updates that took a freaking LONG time to update, even just ONE update - a hotfix - that took 1 hour or longer to update. This was on a blazing fast computer (SSD, top of the line RAM and a gaming motherboard) and still took 1 hour to update. Don't get me started on a very old PC running Windows XP and the updates.
Anyways my point is when I finally learned all that I can with Windows, I looked into OS X (now MacOS) and Linux. OS X/MacOS is alright but very limited and I felt like I've always fit with Linux and now I'm on Fedora. Haven't looked back to Windows in over 9 years and I'm happy.
Like I said, I'm grateful for Windows because if not for Windows, I would have never learned how to use a computer because of course, Windows was predominant back then, but today? Fuck Windows. Haven't even gotten around to use Windows 10 and my father had a lot, and I mean A LOT, of issues with Windows 10 then I finally told him, ditch that laptop and get a Chromebook. He finally did and no issues since. Been happy with his Chromebook and he said it's faster than his Win10 laptop.
IMHO the only best Windows OSes were Win95, Win98, Win2000, WinXP and Win7. I like WinXP and 7 the most of all.
