Bring back support for Windows 7 and Windows 10 will die overnight.
Windows media center alone is worth resurrecting win7 for.
Honestly the experience of Jellyfin, Tvheadend and Kodi is these days nicer than MCE ever was
Does the tv tuner and tv guide work? I tried a few alternatives a few years back and they were garbo. Wmc always just worked.
I get over the air guide in tvheadend, but you can configure it to pull xml based guides off the internet if you prefer.
Every person I've talked to IRL about Windows misses Windows 7. We didn't realize how good we had it. Oh well, I'll just switch to Linux
Honestly, Windows 7 is an ergonomic nightmare for many modern users, me included.
I'm too spoiled with Windows 10/11 and Linux with KDE/Budgie.
I still like it but I never really got into workspaces or anything like that. The only thing I miss when I'm on my 7 machine is dark mode.
Hmm, because no workspaces? Can't think of much else they changed since then...
Rather a flat minimalist design that is easier to navigate and less distractive. Also tiles and other elements that allow for quicker inspection.
