It's Windows 8 all over again.

Why did I forget that there was a Windows 8?

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Because most people were still running Windows 7 at the time – the only reason to get it was on new hardware. And it only lasted for 2.5 years before everyone switched to Windows 10.

Also, remember Windows 8.1 existed?

I miss Windows 7. I don't remember ever operating or working on a Windows 8 machine. Windows 8.1? Same. Maybe some kind of selective memory retention?

[-] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

I don't think so. Just next to nobody had it

Suppressed bad memories.

Everyone just used that software that added a start menu and disabled that full-screen stuff. So it kinda just felt like win10.

There was even a 9 but m$ won't admit to it

Feel myself a weirdo, because of the fact that windows 8 was my favorite windows version, and GNOME 3.38 is still my favorite DE, even though I'm on GNOME 43 right now.
