Windows 11 has become the worst Windows in MS history.
Not even ME, 98 or Vista were as bad as this. With so many bugs. So many broken updates. So much bloatware and spyware.

Vista was well-finished, with no apparent bugs. Its only problem was that it was ahead of what computers of the time could run and the fact that many manufacturers were slow to update the drivers.
To this day, it remains one of the most beautiful operating systems ever released.

Yes, it was polished, but heavy.
But it suffered from a problem not of it's own fault. Not exactly.
Lack of drivers. A lot of companies didn't have drivers ready at launch. Or worse, just never made them, forcing millions of people to either abandon their older hardware, or install XP.
There were several PC stores, that made a killing by installing XP on OCs that came with Vista pre-installed.
But there was also a lot of hardware that was sold, to replace older hardware that had no drivers.
But it's biggest problem was that after so many years of support, XP had become rock solid and had excellent performance.

Vista remains the best looking Windows so far. While Windows 8.1 is the fastest and most optimized version, I miss it...

I still remember testing Windows 8.1 and seeing that i was faster than 7, in CPU bound games, by around 5%.
If it wasn't for the awful UI, Windows 8 could have been one of Microsoft's best. But that UI was just so terrible and unintuitive.

They improved UI a lot with W10 but system speed and responsiveness was worse again...

Because of the bloatware and spyware.
Windows 10 was the OS that came with the Microslop Store by default and a ton of pre-installed apps. And a lot of spyware.
All of the issues of Windows 11 , started with Windows 10. And were then amplified.
I dread the thought of how much crap Windows 12 will be.
