I guess I'm biased because I've been using Windows since when it was TRULY awful. (386/3.1/3.11)

This looks like a normal corporate video, but it goes OFF THE RAILS at the 7 minute mark.

Win 11 hasn't really given me problems.

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

To be fair, it wasn’t awful then. It was mind blowing for this DOS user.

3.1 was pretty terrible for someone who had already used GEOS/Amiga/Mac.

95 was the first version to work as promised.

Page maker on Windows 3.1 (runtime) was so bad, that’s how I ended up with my first Mac.

Page Maker was really designed for the Mac though, makes sense.
