      I miss Windows 7. The default wallpapers were a treat. I remember one that had like a flying turtle with a city on its back

    joking aside, windows 7 is by FAR the greatest looking version of windows. i’m probably biased because it’s the one i used during my formative years, but holy shit man everything from win8 and up just looks like complete soulless corpo garbage. that new shit looks like a free powerpoint template

      I feel like Windows 7 fills the sweet spot between the seemless UI of the 2000/XP era and newer versions. Windows 10/11 could top that list if Microsoft had bothered to create a proper UI instead of just slapping some material design on a handful of apps, while everything else is still basically 2000/XP. Then again, GTK2/3/4 can be almost as bad.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
