At this point I can only assume that Microsoft is actively trying to punish me for using their products.

No, it’s not. Horrible and outdated in many aspects. Much better options out there.

Go on… Pop!_OS? KDE Fedora? And why? I was about to move to Mint Cinnamon 22.2 until you said this, but I’m open to recs.

Ever since Windows 7, Microsoft has shown to be a sadist.

Windows Vista would like a word.

Eh, Vista itself wasn’t that bad, the issues stemmed from both marketing way to low quality devices as compatible, and developers getting used to UAC.
Also, Vista did not have the shitty new settings app.

Windows ME has some shit to say… Then Windows 8 will be next to have a chat.

Windows ME wasn't a sadist. It would have to actually work to get that far. The best thing that happened to a laptop I had which came with ME installed was to put Win98 on it. Ran great after that.

Windows ME was a bastardization of the NT and DOS environment. I was a Microsoft support analyst at the time. From the insiders perspective, it was the biggest pile of shit
