Is it possible that Microsoft Windows is not a very good computer program

@mcc it's an OS fit for raccoons halfway reaching into a juicy dumpster on a very hot and humid day, the stench radiating 10 metres in all directions like a punch in the face when it reaches one's nostrils

@mcc its possible.

@mcc No. Pretty confident it indeed takes that many programs to be that terrible. You wouldn't be able to do it with just one. A raw kernel that boots up to nothing couldn't do anywhere near the same level of damage nor cause the same amount of frustration. Trying to integrate enough into one monolithic program would cause it to fail cascade too soon I think.

In other words, no...it's several and has to be.

@sasanb @mcc came here scrolling the replies to find this exact pedantry in action

@mcc Windows 10 is probably the worst version in my experience. I recall windows XP and 2000 as the best ones. Windows Vista was also terrible.

[lerxst@az.social]

@mcc I do believe I’ve heard that before.

[snazzee@tooot.im]

@mcc honestly Windows has fallen so far back in the last few years, I prefer ChromeOS or Fedora over it.

@mcc I feel like we would have heard something about this before now
