Winbloats was arguably the first one of this list to get enshitiffied. I remember being a 12 yo trying to find an alternative to winbugs because the microsoft account login was required. It's got worse since then
Yeah its the original example of enshittification for sure
I've been here since Windows 3.0. I'm not sure when this mythical not-shit Windows was. There were a few I could live with, but none that were good.
I remember Windows 3.11 as pretty decent.
But Windows is unique in that it can fit a whole lot of shit in it. Way more than one could imagine.
Minecraft, Chrome etc are a 7 litre compost caddy of shit. Windows is a vast open country waiting to be turned into landfill of human waste.
if you can manage to get the IOT LTSC windows 11, it has a ton of that stuff removed by default. it makes it much faster and saves drive space.
The Win 10 IOT LTSC version does the same but better.
For those who don't want 11 anyway.
And it was bad long before then.
