People use Linux to get away from Microsoft but ok

True

I didn't have any reason to switch to Linux until windows 7 got its life support unplugged. It was a very good, no nonsense operating system (well not as much as some Linux distros maybe idk) which worked well and most importantly, it felt like a tool. It mostly did what you wanted it to. Subsequent Windows versions feel like toys, like some child came up with that design. Everything feels wrong, somehow, and designed for a touchscreen
