Could have been worse, he could have installed Vista
Shouldn’t that be 11?
I always thought there’s a line people draw when they do bdsm so the fun doesn’t become torture.
You just crossed it using a 6m pole in order to land as far as possible from the line.
it stops being punishment if you ask for permission every few seconds
Vista
We are going to die!

8 was worse. At least Vista looked like Windows instead of being some weird phone OS hybrid where I couldn’t find anything until I installed a third-party start menu. A start menu!
Found the Win Me fan.
Vista with updates was also shockingly stable. 7 on launch was really just Vista with a new taskbar skin.
Windows ME
Absolutely the worst from a power user perspective
Not even close. Vista wasn’t a straight-up middle finger to desktop users. Well, not by M$ standards anyway.
Just need to remove “8” from that message.
BSODS&M
I fucking loved windows 8, if I could I would still have the all screen start menu bastard.

This post is so old that the first time I saw it Windows 8.1 was still rolling out
But not old enough for this to be about Windows ME.
windows me! my first computer that was “mine”
had to reinstall so many times lol
Anyone got a boot floppy around? Actually my first would have been a hand me down 80286 system with some version of DOS on it
Completely forgot that OS existed
Windows 8 was pretty bad, but you could at least still use desktop mode just fine with a quick settings fix.
Fucking windows 11 took top, left, and right taskbar from us and then locked all the threads asking for it back, and prevented the registry hack to at least get top taskbar back.
Windows 8 was fine
I’m holding out on my work laptop until they force me to “upgrade”
Not even the worst Windows
I thought 8 was ok… 8.1 was the best 8, which changed a few of the annoying things and made it fine. I agree with the other person here, this should be Vista.
Only for subs, constantly asking for permission.
Classic Moss!
I read it in Ayoade’s voice lol
BSOD
What about Windows ME?
Too dangerous. No safe word can save you from windows ME.
You’ll blue screen and you’ll like it!
The safe word is <This program has performed an illegal operation and will be shut down>
Could be worse; could be Vista, 7, 10, 11,
At least 8/8.1 had a good UI
Vista really really sucked by Microsoft’ standards
Windows ME.
ME was a king compared to anything microshit makes these days
ME was an eldritch abomination of cobbled together dos and nt architecture that should have never been.
Metro UI? 🤮
Could have been Gentoo.
