Least Favourite OS

[AkiraKurusu]

If you have an operating system you absolutely cannot stand, please post about it below.

Mine definitely has to be Windows 8, because of its excessive focus on touch-controls. Microsoft managed to fuck up the START MENU; how can you possibly screw up something so simple‽ They turned a nice, simple list of pinned programs into a separate unwieldy screen filled with boxes of mismatched sizes (some were squares, some were rectangles, with seemingly no reason given as to the size, strewn practically haphazardly around). It was immensely ugly and not at all convenient.

I'm still baffled why Microsoft decided to keep some of that repulsive bullshit when transitioning to Windows 10, with those intrusive "Live Tiles" on the restored Start Menu. WHY GATES WHY

Windows 7 > Windows 10 > Windows 8, and I've barely used 7!

Chrome OS, tbh.

Win Me and Win 8.
Worst Windows OS ever.

Chrome OS, I agree.
Also fuck Android x86.

Windows Vista, Windows Me and Windows 95. Absolutely hate them! I liked Windows 7 then Windows 10.

Not sure about Windows 8 if I had it before..I lost the track of time.

Windows 8 and ChromeOS, these OS are pretty bad.
About mobile OS I would say iOS, used for at least 2 years and I hate the ecosystem, you can't even customize your home menu.

Win Me and Win 8.

What did Android x86 ever do to you? I've never gotten it to successfully install after a reboot, but that's besides the point.

why Chrome OS? the way it updates is seamless and good. its lightweight. the hardware can be cheap.

i swear if you want something to just surf the web. you cant go wrong.

Windows 10

Are you kidding me? Explain ? I like Windows 10 and never had a problem and still today. Am I missing something?

Well it's bloated, comes with candy crush pre-installed for fucks sake. It has updates that delete your documents and fuck up your install. It's slow, even a fresh install uses around 2.5gb of ram and is very sluggish if you're not using an ssd. The default apps included are worse than those included with windows 7 (Windows Media Player > Groove Music, Control Panel > Windows settings). It also likes to randomly nuke my linux dual boot for no reason. The ui is also pretty ugly but I guess that is a matter of taste. It has some good features such as automatically acquiring drivers from windows update (although this is annoying if you want to stay on an older driver version). It's got wsl and windows terminal which are kind of neat. But overall it's a worse experience than windows 7 or most Linux Distros.

Windows 10 pr, for it fails to do it's own updates, crashes, increased the ads shoing locations and feels insecure by overruling me when i wanna use other apps then edge.

MacOS is not intuitive at all for power users and trying to customize it is needlessly convoluted. I don't like the direction Windows has been taking since Windows 8 either.

Wow.

What about wsusoffline? Does it helps ? I used it as offline and selects most important update only.. Not an options update.

Android.

[The Catboy]

Windows, especially Windows

iOS, i don't get why people like it so much, would say the same for Mac, but haven't had a chance to try that one

SCO UNIX

Mainly because I hate our POS UNIX system at work.

Never used Win ME; Win 8 didn't bother me as much but it was still pretty dumb. I think OS X is pointless. Anything that can be done on a Mac can be done on either Windows or some sort of Linux for a hell of a lot cheaper and on better hardware.

 

[tglaria]

The worst?
The OS on a chinese mp3 player...
Terrible tranlsation, buttons that didn't do what they did they do, horrible colors, horrible icons, slow...

Windows 8?
Really?
I used it, it was faster and cleaner than Windows 7.
I just installed ClassicShell (now OpenShell) and Windows 8 worked similar than Win7 (same desktop) just faster and with better keyboard shortcuts.
