Let’s not pretend that Linux is without bugs.

I don’t know about that, XP, 2000 and 7 was pretty solid.

Not gonna mention Windows 8? Hmm I wonder why…

Or vista lol, or windows 98 that was so bad they essentially recalled it and re-released it as a second version?

Everyone forgets MILENNIUM!

Because of the trauma.

I used 98 as a teen, it came pre installed, what was wrong with it compared to 95? Asking out of curiosity.

Man it’s been a long time but essentially 98 was the first one to allow for plug and play without drivers if I’m remembering right. That and a few other stability issues made the original crash constantly, including during the demo at a tech show. They re-released it as a second edition that fixed most of it. If you bought the computer towards 1999 they had fixed it.

Because it was shit.

I never claimed that everything MS did was good

Fair point.

XP was probably their most solid OS. And that shouldn’t be a brag.

Reputation is such a strange phenomenon. XP was considered a disaster at launch. It took them years to repair everything that didn’t work.

The rollout of 64 bit architecture support was so sloppy that people were holding on to old hardware so as to not have to install the x64 version of XP. The premiere of the NT kernel meant that nothing had drivers, most software wasn’t compatible yet. DirectX 9 broke half of old games compatibility. There were also two entirely different versions of the shell with dramatically different start menus. Some versions didn’t support multi core CPUs.

It wasn’t until the end life of XP and the launch of Vista that people started to cling to XP and its reputation switched due to a mix of nostalgia and fear of the much worse launch of Vista.

I think .net is pretty good. People love VS Code.
