      They made nothing good since Windows 7. And that was only good compared to Vista.
      XP and 2000 were a lot faster.

      I always hear this repeated but I feel like it doesn’t hold up. Most Windows releases are bad these days. Last release that was mostly decent was Windows 7 but they were even fucking that up towards the end with ‘telemetry’.

        I think they also throttled gpu performance at the kernel level or something. I vaguely remember reading a post about that but don’t have source or anything. However back in the day I was getting dogshit framerates in VR and I had a “pretty good” computer. After trying everything to solve these performance issues for months and failing, I tried out Windows 10 and suddenly all my framerate problems were solved.

      Unless I can debloat Windows 11 like the way Windows 10 Ameliorated Project did, with network spying fully stopped, this is going to be my last version of Windows I will keep running offline for years.
