I've started using Windows with Windows 98, and they're basically three UIs that clash with each other:
The OG UI design that started with Windows 95 and continued up to Windows 2000 like this: https://stealthsettings.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/change_ip_v4_address.jpg
Stuff added in from Windows XP to Windows 7 like this: https://blog.usro.net/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/windows-10-classic-control-panel-1024x607.jpg
That Metro-phone crap that started from Windows 8: https://www.windowslatest.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/01/Windows-Update.png
Honestly, people don't talk enough about how the XP-Vista-7 stuff clash with the 95-98-2000 stuff, but it's there. Microsoft fucked up again by layering yet another UI design on top of the first two, and it just looks like ass.
