Comment on You can still enable uBlock Origin in Chrome, here is how
DacoTaco@lemmy.world 1 day agoExcept all problems of a windows system werent on win7. Bloat? Minimal, was mostly the theme that was heavy but could be disabled. Forced updates? Didnt exist yet. Hardware requirements? A running pc. Half assed new ui? Didnt exist yet. Confusing configs that were all over the place? Nope, started in win8 and 10. Software comparability? 90% hell yes.
Win7 was a polished vista, with loads of bloat removed, performance improvements and 1000% more stable.
Win8 started screwing with shit and moving stuff partly and it went downhill from there

Nah, in those days I picked Linux. In fact, I got a “win7 ready laptop” and still picked Linux over it. Windows 7 was better than Vista, but it didn’t fix the other issues I had w/ windows.
I honestly think Win10 was better than Win7.
